Who would pre-purchase an iPad?

How many people are buying an iPad this weekend? I have no idea, I’m not a gambling man. If you asked me to hazard a guess? Maybe not so many right now, but wait until a toddler picks one up.
OK, stop laughing, seriously; if my son was still four years old, I would buy him one. The iPad looks kid-proof, no moving parts, no camera, hey, not much of a battery charge, what could possibly go wrong? Like the OS, net access is easily controlled.
The iPhone isn’t something you can give a child to play with, it’s mummy or daddy’s phone. An iPad will keep the little blighters occupied for hours without being an inconvenience when you want to communicate. When they’re asleep, you can use it to read a book, watch a movie, play music, catch up on your mail, browse a newspaper or flick through a magazine. You’ll pick it up as easily as you put it down.
The iPad has all the makings of yet another connected device middling-income folk wouldn’t want to be seen without. If you’re a harrassed parent, the price is something you’ll just put on the credit card.
