Every now and then my daughter will grab the PB to browse the web when doing homework. Alot easier and faster, rather then turning on the desktop. So yes go ahead and buy PB for your wife for Valentine's Day, I bet you will not regret it. If she does not want it, I'll take it off your hands.

    In truth, I am trying to convert my wife via shear numbers. I bought my daughters each a BP for Valentine's day. More so I don't have to share. I got 16 Gigers for 145 each, thanks Telus!

    If she wants an iPad, how about just showing some respect for your wife and getting one? There is no reason why spouses need to have his and hers items of everything (or anything for that matter). Personally, I would find it rather insulting for someone to expect I should like something because they do. It is not as if you decided you want a child and she doesn't, which again is her choice but at least worthy of more discussion. It is a piece of technology that will be obsolete by the end of the year and probably collecting dust or contaminating a landill in a couple years, regardless of whether it is a Playbok or iPad. BTW, iPad 2s will probaly be be somewhat cheaper after the iPad 3 is introduced next month.

    ... loading flamethrowers ....

    I guess you've never put a PB in a lady's hand ... they are maybe even more seduced by the gestures, and I won't be surprised it could be a surprising trend. they just need a Hermes, Chanel or Prada accessory and ... booom.
    So, you're advice is "buy an known-obsolete ipad because it's cheaper" ?
    You've got to learn a bit about women psychology ...
