I will

I don't like it to do (general) multitasking and I don't like it to have a camera. I hate flash. I don't want my iPad to play WOW on it or whatever is the number one timewaster right now.

I like the idea of having something of the right size to connect to the internet whenever I want and to buy and organize books. I love the turning of pages in an e-book on this device. I can use it as a table calendar when I am in the office, as a full-scale organizer, foto library or foto frame, as a map, book shelf, mobile office, well, anything I like. Or might need.

The price ... well, I choose the iPad for the same reason I won't live in a youth hostel any more when traveling but instead in an apartment.

Life is too short for bad experiences. Maybe the iPad is more expensive than other tablets. But, the thing is, I know if I buy another tablet it will be a source of frustration to me. Soon I will hate it, give it away and finally buy an iPad.
