Doesn't matter if its casual users or not it is still not a fucking gaming device to me.

For the people who want an iPhone, but have no friends to call.
hahah I'm totally stealing that joke!

Zing.
.... I find this joke highly ironic. Especially because with that price point you could buy an iPhone. (Even if the AT&T kind of makes it even more expensive)

Edit: -

So, anyway, I still don't see the appeal of this. I'd rather spend $500 and get a Viliv or something that runs a real os, and install a "mobile" OS on a secondary partition.

My two cents: for $500+, I'll get a Pandora first. I've already got an iPhone, so the iPad just seems entirely unnecessary. It won't replace my laptop, it won't replace my phone, and I have no desire to carry around a cripple of a laptop just for the sake of web browsing.

Don't get me wrong, it looks like it would be a really cool toy to mess around with. But that's all I see it as: a toy. For any sort of productive work, a netbook would be a much wiser investment, both money-wise and in terms of overall usability. I mean hell, even the crappiest netbook can multitask to a certain degree, can't it?

As stupid as I think this is, I'm dying to see if people actually buy it. You can't imagine how many people think this actually looks good. To be fair it does look good...when it costs less and is a phone!

Of course people are going to buy it. I personally don't think it looks good and there is a lot of wasted space.
Its made by Apple so it must be good right? /sarcasm

I wouldn't mind carrying one of these around if it can run Adobe Photoshop and has a sensitive touchpad.. I hate carrying around my laptop and tablet everywhere. It gets heavy. ^^;;
