Well, the thing is that when I travel, I always have my Mac laptop with me 
so that I can do real processing on the road. Given that, adding an iPad to 
my carry-on luggage really does not make any sense. My laptop is a Macbook 
Pro with 8 GB RAM and lots of horsepower to do everything I would ever want 
to do on a portable device.

I can see myself getting an iPhone at some point, but for me the iPad is 
neither fowl nor fish.

Cheers,
Nathan
