I would venture to say that those who access info via their computer will be using the iPad more than their main machine.How many think they will be using their ipad more then their main machine in 3-6 months

That's a great question. Say you want to go online and you see both the iPad and your MacBook on the table - which one would you choose? You can take the iPad you've just bought but what if you need to type a long mail message? What would you do if you happen to visit a Flash website? What if you want to chat with someone while browsing or video-chat with a friend?
If you've got access to both machines, why would you choose to limit yourselves by using the iPad?
My iPhone already took a good chunk of my Laptop computing away, almost completely taken away any of my "Out of the house" computing. I'd expect the iPad to take the rest of the out of the house computing, and seal the Bed/Living room couch/Casual Web browsing. I will have to see, but I would expect the iPad to take a good 80% of my computing time. Considering 80% of my computing time is on the internet, its not really that hard to believe.
For example, what I am doing right now, replying to this thread. That would be on my iPad.![]()
I love Outlook for my email, but I think that might be getting used less... unless I need to download a pdf to my computer
As you can see, each has their purpose and strengths. There are plenty of things you can do with an iPad other than visit flash based websites. Many of which, likely have an app anyway.
iPad will be able to save, open PDF no probs, Jobs confirmed this!
iWorks even allows you to create PDFs on iPad via Pages (save to PDF)
I think the ipad will mostly replace my iPhone usage (lazy boy browsing, before bed, bathroom).
I still need regular computers, but I can see myself using them less. The ipad will replace a lot of my airbook use, too. It's 2 years old now and the battery ain't what it used to be.
