It's just a little too big for me - I'd have preferred something under 7" - but I could easily see it sitting in the lounge. Imagine a tie up with a sports broadcaster, you can be watching a game on the TV and have stats and other info streamed to your iPad. This kind of integration will happen, this will become a de facto "lounge" device to be used as an adjunct to watching the TV. If I had an iPad it wouldn't leave the house - it will be interesting to see how many take the 3G option.
