I guess you could call me an "Old Fart Techie". I have the Amazon Kindle and really see no reason for the Ipad. My Kindle is much smaller, lighter, has built it 3G networking, free internet surfing, free email, stores more books than I can read at once, plays music (but I still prefer my IPod for that), and works great in bright sunlight. Oh, did I mention it also costs 1/2 what the Ipad does? I'm getting on a plane tomorrow for a business trip. Ordinarily, I'd need to carry two books with me (I'm flying coast to coast) - now I can throw my Kindle into my computer case with ease.
