I too was skeptical about iPad and its usefulness for me (for the first 6 or 7 months after I bought an iPad 2), but right now I do "absolutely" everything I do (except writing code, which admittedly is a big part of my daily life, but not as big as I initially thought) on my iPad. "Everything" includes all email, web browsing (and reading online tutorials and articles), listening to audiobooks (to be honest I do it more on my iPhone than iPad), managing tasks (OmniFocus is just fantastic), reading books that I would've never read on my MacBook (books like 'JavaScript: The Good Parts', 'Git Pro', 'Head-First C', 'Node: Up and Running' and many chapters of other books). How do I know that I wouldn't have read these books if it wasn't for the iPad? Because I wanted to read all of these books (or similar books) for the past several years but never got to do so because reading PDFs on a computer is really boring. I was content with blog articles and online tutorials and thought books were something of the past; but I was really wrong. The quality of these books are stunning and I've learned so much that my only regret is why I didn't use my iPad more in the first 5 months (it used to sit on my desk all day long). Last year I would've recommended the iPad to novice, incompetent PC users. Now, I recommend iPad to everyone. Well, maybe except those who can't live without having direct access to the machine's gut. But even those people can "jailbreak" (or get an Android tablet) and live a happy life.
