Did anyone order an iPad yet?

I'd much rather buy a iPod touch as they can watch movies on it as well and its much more compact. We'll see. The wife usually gets what she wants.

Adrian, I had two ipod touches. My daughter has an ipod touch. I got touches for all three of my girlfriend's kids. Lisa and I have iphones now, and I got rid of my touches a long while back.
Your kids, they'd LOVE ipod touches. None of the kids really bother with my ipad at all.
The ipad is more of a grownup niche toy. The touch is for everyone.
You can get a touch for two kids for the price of a base ipad. If they don't have them already, I swear, they'll be a lot happier.
None of our kids go anywhere without them, and Lisa and I are never without out iphones.
There's no doubt your wife is right, cause wives always are. An ipad would be great on vacation and the battery lasts a LOT longer. From my experience, the kids are gonna get way more fun out of the touch. Our kids are 20, 13, 13, and 8. Only one kid doesn't have a touch, and she wants one. Bad. She's going to be 19 in June. They work for kids of all ages.
