Will You Buy an Apple iPad?

My Nokia has a (mini) USB port and I love it.
Just yesterday I backed up my entire phone, including recent photos, music and movie clips, contacts and more to my hard drive.
But for me, the #1 reason I have a Nokia smart phone instead of an iPhone is I don't like the "Apple Lock In" business model. The #2 is that I like a full QUERTY keyboard on my phone.
The iPad is still interesting, but the more I read about it in the reviews, the more I feel like it is "more of the same" Apple "Lock Me In to Apple" and "Lock Me Out of the Rest of the World" which I really dislike.
For example, when Apple refused Google Voice on the iPhone, this was really wrong and smacks of the old days when Microsoft did the same as part of their core business mode.
Luckily, OSX has a Darwin/BSD core.......

xgnokii
xgnokii(1x) gnokii xgnokii(1x) NAME
xgnokii - graphical interface of the gnokii telephone toolkit SYNOPSIS
xgnokii DESCRIPTION
xgnokii is a fancy graphical interface for libgnokii. It uses the settings in the [global] section of the configuration file of gnokii(1). You can assume that your phone is supported, however there are rare cases that you will get very limited functionality with xgnokii. xgnokii can save contacts in vCard format (thanks to Pavel Machek <pavel at ucw dot cz>) if you add .vcard or .gcrd extension (case sensi- tive) to the file name in the export contacts dialog. gnokii is a multiple systems tool suite and (eventually) modem/fax driver for the mobile phones. gnokii at the beginning was designed to support Nokia phones. At the moment it supports most of the Nokia mobiles and also supports other phones that understand AT commands. DIAGNOSTICS
Various error messages are printed to STDERR when xdebug = on is set in gnokii config file BUGS
