personally this, everytime.
If i want to be productive i'll open my laptop, or use my desktop. For me the iPad is a media consumption device, and a good way to demo literature/documents with my customers and manage presentations.

Yeah. 3.1 million pixels, 4G and still 9-10 hour battery life is nothing much. As for the graphics, did you watch the App demos?
Ahh. You trollin'

My iPad became almost too slow and laggy to use on iOS 5 despite restores and fresh installs. Other people have found iOS5 to be fine but slower than 4 on the iPad 1.
just ordered one 
32gb 4g version in black. cant wait.
have the ipad 1 and its feeling it age a little now, especially with iOS5.... if i didnt know any better id say ios5 was a virus for ipad1!. made safari crash all the time, and other apps. seems like it needs more memory really. oh well, roll on next friday.

Yeah I think the 256MB of RAM was the issue. Apps could ask the OS to page quickly enough and so requested RAM that wasn't availible. iOS promptley terminated the app for trying to access the RAM.
XCode logs point to this anyway!

The next stage is preparing for shipment and then shipped, there is nothing to worry about.
As Shine says, the next stage is "Preparing for Shipment". I got an order acknowledgement through email and the funds have been taken from my account, but I shouldn't really be expecting the Preparing stage until around Wednesday/Thursday next week.
Me. I have no use case whatsoever for a tablet currently, if it can't replace my netbook what's the point? Can't wait for W8!
The ASUS Transformer Prime can...
And considering how horrible most netbooks are, I'd much rather have an iPad.

One thing I have to moan about with this iPad, is the FaceTime camera. On a screen of that res, having a VGA camera is pretty inexcusable. They could have at least upped it to the FaceTime HD camera found on the Macs. Meh, I don't use FT much but it's pretty lame.

Sure the hardware can, but the OS cannot. They just don't have the flexibility or app availability that a real Desktop OS can provide. An x86 Transformer with W8 is my ideal device for the end of this year to be honest! Ofcourse there's a lot riding on Intel getting decent battery life out of there chips for this, but I don't expect ARM compatibility on W8 to be worthwhile for a good 2 years or more (old apps etc.)
