the iPad at Wal-Mart

Welp, it looks like Wal-Mart is going to sell the iPad, so says USA Today. They aren't going to be on discount, but they'll be there by the holidays. If you have an iPad, how is it working out for you? Is it living up to expectations? I saw one of the iPads at Best Buy this summer, and it was an interesting gadget, but one look at the price made me think "PHEW! That's expensive!" . I can see it used in an academic setting, especially in High Schools and Colleges around the country.
