I got my iPad for the same reasons I bought an iPod Touch a couple of years ago, plus the ability to read newspapers, magazines and other news sites, as well as books and -- my favorite way to start the day -- read four e-mail delivered batches of comics and editorial cartoons. The iPad also is turning out to be a pretty nifty iPod and the built-in speaker is a lot easier to live with in quiet rooms than a pair of those damn earbuds that keep falling out. I also like the way the screensaver automatically rotates through my photos like a digital picture frame. I've got my iPad pretty loaded with everything I want/need, and there are still 10 GB of space left. Of course, the music is only my favorites since my complete 20 GB iTunes file would never fit.
