I might be tempted to get one (actually the wife wants one as an e-book reader). The one thing that'll stop me from getting an iPad (as opposed to a competitor) is the lack of expandability. If I am going to spend this kind of money on a device, I expect a slot for an SD card so I can stick more memory in when I want to. Not be forced to decide on what size memory I want and pay Apple crazy prices for it at the time of purchase. It also seems madness to me that there's no USB ports.

But hey, that's Apple for you...
