I'd be interested to learn how other Members are finding the iPad.
After the initial novelty wore off, I've realised that I've practically relegated it to a leisure device, something I use to watch TV, read stuff, play games, etc. All those expensive business-type Apps languish largely unused.
It tends to remain at home, as I feel that if I'm going to carry my iPad I may as well carry my MacBook and avoid the frustrations and limitations I find when using an iPad for doing anything remotely serious.
I was thinking about this after learning that OmniOutliner for the iPhone isn't scheduled for production (and may never be), despite my being asked what flavour I'd like!
I know Ken blogged about 'iPad or Bust' but I can't help feeling that I'm now much more likely to buy 'serious' Apps for my iPhone (which I have with me 24/7) or for the desktop, rather than for my iPad.
I'm wondering if this view of the iPad is unique to me.
