Not trying to flamebait.

@ schizrade: Your friend must have massive fingers, I have no problem typing on it in landscape mode. portrait I could see getting crapped, but in landscape it isn't much different than a macbook keyboard.

I fly on the virtual keyboard now, no problem, but I'm also really fast on the iPhone keyboard. I don't expect everyone to be as good with OSKs. I dunno, must be all the violent video games.

Thanks guys. I was trying to see if it would be worth getting it, but the few things it does more over the iPhone is not enough for me to get one. The lack of a USB is the biggest turn off for me. I do a lot of travel and that is why I was looking into one.
USB for what? pictures?
Sometimes you just need to transfer any file quickly and USB flash drives are great for that.

Air Video is one of the coolest ipod/pad/phone apps out there. I love watching west wing in bed or at school.

How convenient to carry the ipad around?
Theres these newfangled gadgets called "thumb drives". Theyre really cool, have no moving parts and come in varying capacities. They generally use USB as an interface ( they plug into this usb thing like a lamp does to the "shocky hole" in your trailer walls)
Sometimes if Joe has a friend named Rob, and they have files or music, heck it can be anything almost, that they want to share, Joe can put it onto this USB drive thingamajig and then go to Robs house or just give him the drive. Then Rob plugs it into his computer, it automagically detects it, and VOILA!!!! he can access those files too.
I take it with me almost everywhere. I have the Apple case and its kind of like carrying around a pad of paper, just heavier.
Please, the sarcasm isn't necessary and is inflamatory.
In your example I connect to the network my friend is on with my iPad, start up "Files" and my friend drops his music into my WebDav (browser accessable) drop box.
Or I upload them to my DropBox account... or have them emailed to me.
Please elaborate with a more thought out argument.
The iPad is not a storage device, stop trying to treat it like one. Too many people that are stuck in their ways and those are the people that don't get the iPad, and you're one of them. I get it, and I've been using mine as a COMPLETE replacement for my HP MINI 1035NR that I bought just 6 months ago.
I do have an actual question to ask. How do you restore the OS should something happen to it? I realized its probably slim to none, but In my mind I am thinking anything with an OS and web access has the potential to become corrupt somehow. Would you just send it to Apple? Or is there some Apple supported way to back it up? Would you lose all your apps also and have to redownload them ( and would you be charged again?) ? Sorry for all the questions, just curious.
I didn't say that was the _only_ reason to get an iPad. You're reacting as if it is.oh...... well, i can see that being worth $400 to someone, i guess.
