I wonder if people keep a gazillion time sinks on their home screens is that they've paid $500 to be part of the smartphone club, and reducing its "use" would cause buyer's regret. I think I am somewhat guilty of that on my iPad.

Honestly, as useful as smartphones are, you'll have a hard time justifing the price, unless you have so special use case. Luckily my iPad was a gift, otherwise I would feel cheated. I often try to browse the web, but after a few minutes I get frustrated and switch to a laptop. In my mind the iPad is a useability nightmare, it's only good for a few well designed casual games (and may reading, if you don't have a Kindle). For anything else, including browsing and email, it's quicker and more comfortable to just get out the laptop.
