Do you find yourself more fond of your iPad since you got it, or less?

Or find yourself using it more (or less) since you got it?


When I got mine I was fairly underwhelmed, but once I got used to it and accepted it it for what I use it for (web browsing and emails) it's brilliant, overpriced for what I use it for... But brilliant.
 
Before I bought mine I had great expectations for what it could be capable of doing. I've yet to be disappointed, but rather amazed at what it really is capable of performing even at this early stage in its life.

Steve Jobs and Apple should have really used the slogan "This changes everything" for the iPad, because it is the truth.
 
I spent awhile debating whether I would actually get use out of it for the price. Ended up with the 16GB with Wifi+3G and have been very happy with it. My MBP gets ignored at home a lot now as its so much easier to browse the web, check email, google reader, etc. Was worth the price.

On a side note, we bought my wife the same 16GB 3G iPad as well, she is a college student and last year used her MacBook Air as it was light to carry around with books. She replaced it this semester with the iPad primarily and so far has been happy with it at school rather then the laptop and much easier to carry around. Worth the price on both accounts.
