Let me guess: You sleep with your iPad, don't you?

My first reaction: well duh!

During my 9-5(ish) I'm on a real computer. Why would I bother with a tablet? If I'm out and about, the iPad's just one more thing to carry with me, so I'm using my phone instead. I only really use the iPad when I'm settled in somewhere but don't want to mess with my laptop to do something. I use the iPad like a bigger, slightly less convenient to carry but nicer to use smartphone.

If enough people are at all like me, I'd expect the iPad to be used mostly at home before and after work, and I'd expect it to lead to more media consumption simply because it makes passive media consumption less painful.

There is also the cost to consider. With all those extra gadgets laying around, it's easy to set your iPad aside and have it disappear. Then you're out $500-$900
