Yeah, i just don't see the point of dropping anything over $100 on a tablet that isn't an iPad. Even if it is overkill for what you need right now, it's arguably the most thought-out tablet out there, and I'm willing to bet you find all kinds of other uses for it in the end.
I think the future of tablets could be driven by Adroid or Chrome OS, but too many companies are rushing flawed designs to the market to compete with the iPad. Meanwhile, Apple has had all the time in the world to design and dictate the market. Nothing compares (yet). Heck, the biggest Microsoft guy I know here has and loves his iPad and would give it up without a fistfight.
