I've been thinking about the fact that I dropped nearly $1000 on my iPad. My wife said "that's almost as much as a laptop." To which I responded "but I don't have a laptop". And that's it. My iPad is my laptop and does what a laptop excels at better than a laptop. Sure, I can't do everything as well on the iPad but I have an actual computer for those tasks. I don't think I will ever need another laptop.

When was the last time I actually even looked at the specs of a laptop? Hell if I know. I used to know the specs like the back of my hand. I think I'm probably not alone here. (This is probably an old line of thinking but I have had the first iPad since day 1 - I avoided the iPad 2 because I didn't want to be enticed - so this is the first time I had a chance to get excited about an iPad since using one for a long time.)
