The only things I like it for is reading my RSS/news feeds in Feeedler or Flipboard and watching small video clips since it's very portable (although it is a little heavy for longer readings. Well it's not 'heavy' but it's definitely not like holding a magazine in your hand).
Everything else I'd rather do on my MBP. Typing is still difficult, which then affects using email and the shitty mobile browser Safari. I guess you could attach the iPad keyboard but then why not just use a laptop.
I don't see the iPad or anything other similar tablet device overtaking a real productive device like a laptop. iPad is more like a quick entertainment device. Look up some news, read a book, or check the internet form some quick info.
It's essentially a big ass iPhone.
