The Ipad has the most incredible user interface features I have ever seen. However, it does not have USB interface, it has no keyboard and it requires a service contract with a cell phone provider for full utility.

Although I think the Ipad is the single coolest personal data device I've ever seen, I think the hidden costs and utility limitations made the much less expensive Toshiba notebook a better choice for me.
