It's all in need and how you use it. Work paid for mine, but I kind of wish we'd sprung for the 3G version, or that I'd have thought to pay the difference out of pocket.
Here's how I use mine for my writing side-career: http://goo.gl/5Xe3 Other apps I use: Kindle, Nook, iBooks for reading Netflix The Guardian Eyewitness photography app (their best photos) NYTimes (was just upgraded, too) Comics+ Flipboard (excellent app for keeping up with social networks and news feeds -- gives both a magazine-like feel) Adobe Ideas (good for doodling/rough sketching) Mint (tied to the personal finance site of the same name) DirecTV IMDB Dragon (though I don't actually use it much) Remote I also have two Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu apps with videos, etc., of various techniques. I wish Flickr would get with it and upgrade their app for the iPad.
