One thing it definitely has over traditional PC tablets is its portability factor - 1.5lbs and .5" thick vs. 6+lbs and clunky...

The iBooks part looks the most appealing to me, assuming it sells college textbooks at a much cheaper price. It'd be even better if it were like iTunes in that it allows the use of non-Apple-sold books on the device, since it would me to pirate all my textbooks. Throw in a highlighter tool and you have something that many, many college students will be purchasing.

Good point, owners will have to overcome this FACT eventually, LOL

[edit] horrifically, there might be competing products in the near feature as well, named myPAD, goPAD, soPAD, surePAD etc  :D

First fucking thing that came to mind too when I heard iPad.

I was under the impression it was going to be called the iSlate... not iPad.
