Let's see, $829 for the 64gb iPad, or <$300 for a netbook with 160GB... hmm....
The other thing is that this will suck for travelling. Netbooks are awesome in this respect, just fold it up and throw it in your bag, most of them have a sturdy enough case they can get banged around quite a bit with no problems. The iPad, having the screen exposed and prone to scratches/dents on the back as well, will require another special case, so in reality it will end up being bulkier and heavier to carry around vs a netbook.
