It's *really* disappointing that the leather cases will not be shipped till something like the 23rd, I think there'll be a lot of scratched and abused iPads by then. I'll be keeping mine high and dry until then

Yep, I agree - the form factor (it's a pseudo-netbook, it's a takeaway tab...) is pretty great. There's one thing I'm not sure of: no mouse. I think there's a distinct difference between the close-in intimate touch interface and the keyboard, monitor's-over-there interface ... the tours show people typing then touching the screen. I'm not sure of that bit yet.
I'll be giving it quite the workout to find the sweet spot
