a secondary type of internet device that basically anyone can use
considering amazon made millions selling a simple book reader the kindleDX
for 489.00 this on the other hand does SO much more for 10 more bucks...
It is definatly for a certain type of user... basically anyone that can use an Iphone or Ipod touch can use this without learning not a bad idea if you ask me..

Come on now...
Did you listen to Jobs this morning? He is saying the opposite.
For $499 you get the non 3g version, only wifi. Merrr...
you have to pay $130 more for the 3g version, and thats if you only want 16gb.
if you want wifi+3g + 32g, its $230 more, bringing total to $729
And we all know it isn't worth it to get the 16gb, nor the 32gb, but you have to get the Wifi + 3g + 64gb at $829, this of course, doesn't cover the monthly fee's you are going to have to pay for AT&T's over priced Data plan if you plan on using it where ever you are, UNLIKE the kindle @ just $489.
Not saying one is better than the other, but I definitely expected more than just a over-sized iTouch for this launch of the iPad.
