Gadget Failure?

Apple's iPad looks like a glorified iPhone, and the iPad's features do not seem to make it more exciting than any other Apple product. I do not think that buyers will benefit from it unless they do not already own a laptop. It certainly looks like a neat gadget to have, but my iPhone is more portable and can do almost everything that the iPad can do, and my laptop can do everything else. Unless the price of the iPad falls below the price of a delicious meal, I will not buy one.
