The 3G is almost compelling. However, lots of us already carry around a laptop with an expensive 3G account.  I can only use one device at a time, and it's silly to me that I can't either tether to this with it's embedded 3G chip, or else use the same (capped) data plan for both.  Since I can't, I'll stick with the laptop for everything.<p>Of course that's the cell carrier's fault rather than Apple's, but it's still going to keep Apple from getting my money for one of these gadgets.
