We have one at our school. It is identical to the I-Touches that we
have, only much bigger. I wish we had waited and purchased a class set
of them instead of the I-Touches.

I'd be interested in its functionality in a school setting. I've heard
that it is completely "Apple centric" and can only be used with Apple
apps. This seems like it would be really limiting. But --it's so pretty.

Have you been to an Apple store to play with it? I suggest you go see
it. It is awesome!I have an iPhone and love it. I have a kindle and have
always loved it.
I cannot wait for the iPad with 3G! It is supposed to be released this
month.I have even purchased a new purse to hold it.
I want it very badly. The screen is so crisp. Pages in the ebooks turn
quickly and pages are marked easily. I used pages a notebook app and
really liked it too. I highly recommmend you go see it in person. We
went last Sunday to pick one up for my dad, but they are all sold out.
The photo app is incredible and easy to use.
Now, here is the thing. Many other companies are also coming out with a
similair device. Do you want to wait and see them first?

Anyone out there one of the first ones to purchase an iPad? How do you
like it? I would consider this as an alternative to the deluxe Kindle
because of the added capabilities but I want someone to tell me if it is
worth the $500.00. Would an iTouch be just as cool? Should I just remain
a Luddite and use my CD player and the library?
