i've never felt even slightly compelled to get an iTouch, but have felt
the Kindle would be interesting if it were in color. Now the iPad comes
along...it is big enough to actually be useful for extended use...and I
would really enjoy reading graphic novels (ie, comic books) on this
thing. To me, the size and the color really make the difference vs an
iTouch or a Kindle.

Mostly but there are some differences. No camera or mic. There are some
special added navigation techniques and menus for web browsing and reading
books which are different from the iPhone/Touch.
But yeah, a bit iTouch with a data connection is a rough way of looking at
it.

Isn't it just a bigger iPhone Touch?

No rant, simple statement that no matter how good it just another PC

hence no matter how good, it must die.
That said Tablets interest me though my next portable likely will be an
ION based
netbook.

So I'll bring it up: what do people think of the iPad? I can already
guess
at the level of disinterest and disdain on this list (so no need to
vent it
here in response), so what I'm more looking for is more factual
evaluations
of the features and how it compares to equivalent solutions out there
now,
or that people expect to come out in the next few months.
I have a T61 but it's getting old and would like to get a tablet
PC-type of
device, and am expecting that the upcoming Win7 tablets should blow the
iPad
out of the water in price and features right? Anyone got their eye on
a
particular one coming out soon?
