What was annoying about the iPad when I did own it was the fact that a lot of the time, it just collected dust because, outside from the occasional bathroom visit or late-night web lookup, it didn't get used.

Yes, my iPad is getting used about as much as your was, now I leave it in my car and use it as big screen GPS ...

I use my MBP for everything.
 
Since this is in the MBP section,
I'll choose MBA for your needs.
Second would be the MBP.
Last would be the MBP 13'

Anything higher would be a waste considering your needs.
 
its hard to use the ipad when you cant multitask. i cant surf the web and listen to pandora at the same time. for a few more bucks you could get a 13 mb/mbp.

Isn't iOS 4.x supposed to be released for the iPad soon? I held off hoping for up update that would make it more like a computer. I need office and the ability to manage files. Though the more I see people taking notes in meetings on iPads the more I want one. Trying to hold out until spring...

I use the iPhone on the couch. iPad would be better.

Cheers,
