Brian, did you know you can do a curated app list on Appolicious for iPad? Just go here: http://www.appolicious.com/curated-apps/featured. You will able to select iPad apps.

I love my iPad, I bought it for development purposes or at least I use that to justify the cost. I will never lay back on the couch and browse the web with my iPhone again. I just released my first game for the iPhone and iPad. It is called "Peppers The Game", unfortunately the name peppers was already taken. Things are slow going, only two reviews so far. It is easy getting lost on the AppStore.

As for the iPad, the screen is awesome, the web seams a tad slow, and it is well constructed. I can't wait for OS 4.0.

Just saw one at the Nonprofit Technology Conference. Everyone around stopped what they were doing to look at it at the registration desk. It was fantastic and I immediately had tech lust but I do know that it needs 3G for me to want it. For now I'm trying to resist.

Well I have no complaints about my iPad. I really do not understand this obsession with the camera or the flash support. Holding up a iPad to take a picture just doesn't seem practical to me. As for flash I understand the approach that Apple is taking. Flash is very buggy it always has been. HP has also made comments about flash problems when they have spoken about the on again off again tablet/slate computers. It is not Apple's place to help market people websites. The websites should upgrade there sites, but with that being pointed out. What sites are people trying to use that require so much flash support that you can not use them. I know of one TYPE of site that is not appropriate to list in these forums.

I wouldn't buy one. As far as I can tell it's an oversize ipod touch. And only 16 gb of memory for $500? My laptop was that much and it has a 250 gb hard drive (and a dual core processor too). Of course, I don't buy Apple products myself (my laptop has Windows 7 on it), but it just seems like something of a rip off to me.
