You can give 3G connectivity to any computer device with a USB 3G receiver thumbstick.

I had an Ipad on lone for a week from a friend and loaded a few apps. At the end of the day it is an oversised Iphone that you can't put in your pocket. Its fun to use but if I want to do anything serious I go to my PC. It is horrible to type on . I am still watching the scene for non Apple tablets. If I bought an Ipad it would end up being used mainly to browse the Internet while sitting in bed.
