If you are complaining about 500 dollars price tag on iPad, then perhaps u should look into galaxy tab and hp slate. They seem to be very reasonable for people who think iPad is expensive.
Do you think that the iPad will be like the iPod touch which came from $400-$200 or do you think that it will be like a mac and never come down in price?
Sure it will... when the ipad 2 comes out then go check ebay about a month or two later after the initial massive sale of people selling after upgrading at a inflated price say 400.. I would say about a month after the release you will be able to snag a ipad in 300 range once the massive influx of sales is over.. no one will buy a ipad on ebay for 400 when you can get the new one for 500.. so prices go down..
