When I use an Ipad, magic happens. Rainbows suddenly appear, small people with high pitched voices emerge from nearby tuffets and begin singing in high pitched voices, and unicorns fly out of my butt.
I can download apps that let me fart in 144 different pitches. I can shake my Ipad gently and it tells me not only where to eat, but what to order and how to say "pozole" like I am a native New Mexican.
The iBand app takes my nervous finger tapping and turns it into a pitch-perfect timbale solo that I can immediately upload and sell on iTunes "world music" section.
I can access all my favorite apple forums where I can pedantically chide FNG's that don't know about the special easter egg messages that appear when you temporarily hold the power button and the volume switch. I feel secretly superior.
My favorite is when I can follow Engadget's live tweets of the new Ipad unveiling, as it happens. In real time. Like I am really there at the MacWorld conference. Only I'm not. But it feels like I am.
I feel warm and fuzzy inside when I hold my iphone-ipad-imac-ipod.

Seriously, though. My wife wants one for nothing in particular. I have to agree, they are pretty cool for their intended use. No one buys an Ipad to do much more than consume information and media and for now, it's the coolest gadget going.
Android? Uhhh....not so much.
