That's my digital reading buddy of the moment. I have hopes for the iPad as a reader, but won't know for a while whether it will make me set the DX aside. Your point about developers is something that's been on my mind. People tripping over each other to downplay the iPad should think back to iPhone 1.0, before the App Store showed us what a multi-functional little computer it could be. At best, right now, people are thinking about iPhone apps on the iPad. I'm thinking about iPad apps and the possibilities are endless.
