Just got my 32gb PB on tuesday.
For the $179 I paid for it (taking into consideration I get my $100 MC rebate), i am extremely happy with it.

I mean the Kindle is supposed to be the next big thing...and at $199 plus taxes for a Kindle, the 32gb PB is FAR SUPERIOR at a price of $179 with taxes all in! (a sore spot with the kindle is that it's only being released in the US first, and nowhere else in the world.)

In addition to that, I would take the PB over the Ipad2 anyday. I much prefer the size/form factor, and having spent a good amount of time on both ipad2 and PB, i do love that praactically all sites work as opposed to the ipad. Just disappointed with the constant delays with the OS (and now no BBM on the next OS release is obviously a bummer).
