Sure the Apple fanatics are the ones lining up to get one on the first day, but the bottom line is most iAnything users are PC users.
Getting a little tired of reading stupid comments like this that only Apple fanboys buy Apple products. Or are you going to say the typical Mac user/Apple fanboy buys at least 20 iPods and 10 iPhones each just to support Apple?
However it's quite amusing to see Apple succeed over and over with "obviously inferior technology". I know this just pisses off the Apple haters to no end, and that makes me want to see Apple do even better (even though I'm a hardcore PC guy).

Anyway, I don't know why I replied to this. Nobody but apple fanatics are going to be into the iPad. Yes, that's enough for them, but unlike apple fans, I don't give a fuck about sales figures. I buy the things that are right for me, not what some geek in a turtle neck tells me to.

I mean why $600 for a LV wallet vs a $5 walmart wallet... they both hold my cards the same way...!!! WTF

So he kind of proved my point for me (thanks!).
Casual users with Apple products (like myself, I have a Nano and a Shuffle) will have no interest in it.
Casual users who use Apple computers and have an iPhone probably won't either.
It's the mentalcases who have convinced themselves that it is not a useless gimmick that are buying these things. And as we all know, there is no shortage of mentalcases in this world
And of course, the people who want a really good ebook reader...

I dunno - I guess it looks cool, but it's useless to me as well. It's almost like the designers created this just for the sake of creating something.

Most of these guys use a tabletPC of sorts, and does very little typing...
