I'm surprised he bought it knowing he had no use for it. One week out I'm finding it extremely useful for various things -- largely leisure stuff like reading long articles that test my attention span browsing on the desktop, a resurgence in my interest in casual gaming, and I already read an entire book on it. I'm checking the App Store 3 or 4 times a day. My favorite geeky app at the moment is MyCongress which really shows off what a bigger screen can do for simply aggregating information from other sources. It pulls together Twitter, YouTube and OpenCongress into a nice GUI that you can pop around really quickly and explore. I'm excited to see this model applied to other areas of interest for me.
