That said, I have yet to purchase one. I've learned never to purchase the first gen apple products. Soon enough second gen comes out and makes me wish I had waited. This is purely business strategy for them. Your list of complaints will probably be addressed one release at a time. Purely because they're a business and will make more money this way. THAT said... I've been to so many business meetings in the past few months where business folks have iPads used for business. Presentations are quick and slick, you can hook up to a big display, and show a preso really nicely. But I agree with your list of demands. My biggest gripe is that they need to make it more of a device. Add a USB port for a flash drive, that would be one major improvement. I love you guys, but don’t really agree here.

I have currently in my home, 3 Apple laptops and an iMac as well as a Windows netbook and a 10 y/o Windows tablet (Walkabout HH3). Any of these, even the old HH3 will do more than the iPad. True, the new touchscreen stuff is great, but what does it do that I am not already doing? I think as far as the iPad has so many shortcoming, there's a big worm in that Apple. I agree.
