Which is Better - Apple iPad or a Laptop Computer?

To be honest, I was initially taken in by the hype surrounding the Apple iPad, being touted as a 'Laptop Killer'. However, it quickly died down after I actually got to see and use it. When I saw what the Apple iPad was capable of, I thought that comparing it with a laptop was a far cry! Don't let the iPad versus laptop reviews fool you into believing that it is the next big thing which will replace laptops as it's in no measure a substitute for a real laptop computer!
