Whether or not I pick one of these up depends entirely on the price. I love the fact that I could watch movies and tv shows on my iPhone and PSP when I travel so this large screen will definitely be better for me in that department. I have a Kindle app on my iPhone so if the large screen iPad uses the same apps then this could replace my regular Kindle.

Like I said, if the price is reasonable then I cannot see a reason not to get one.
its apple we're talkin about
i'm expecting a $600-800 dollar price tag here

i won't just because this doesn't really fill a niche for me.

i have a cell phone to do all my calendaring, email, contacts, and other management stuff, as well as play the odd podcast or video. i don't travel much, so i don't need a full-featured mobile media player.

since i don't travel much, i'm not often away from a computer, and my laptop is portable enough that i can take it anywhere i would take the iTab. as soon as you get less portable than a cell phone (something i can fit in my jeans pocket), everything falls into the category "stuff i have to carry."

it's a cool device and will be great for some; i just don't really need/want it.

Yeah, I was figuring in that price range as well. It may be an fall\winter purchase if I decide to replace the Kindle with it.
