ok here’s my two cents, for what it’s worth. I was lucky enough to get an iPad for my birthday this past year AND i have a girlfriend who works at AT&T (my carrier is Verizon) and I often take her advice.
If you ONLY want the WIFI only model, do not be conned into getting a more expensive model. You are RIGHT, they are only trying to make a sale because they work on COMMISSION. They dont care about your needs at all. Only buy what you need and what you can afford. I researched the iPad ALOT and although i WANTED the whatever it was called that allowed me to access internet outside of my home, i couldnt justify the added expense because i knew that i would only use the thing at home. if i’m going to be working on my laptop outside the house, these places (coffee shop, bookstore, YMCA, etc) have wireless (which by the way, would work on my iPad).

i feel like i’m rambling, too much coffee at dinner. i hope you find something helpful in my comment!

Such a pain when a salesperson doesn’t listen. Seems like the company figured out how to make more money. Sorry you were left disappointed.

I’d love a tablet, but I can’t afford the one I want (Asus Transformer with the docking station/keyboard)

I think Marcos was just trying to make a sale. I’m really not interested in a tablet purchase. I’m happy with my laptop. But, a new camera would make me very happy.

Yes, I think I would prefer a wifi xoom as well (Verizon doesn’t get good signal where I live). However, I know that a tablet is definitely not in the budget this year. They seem cool. So, perhaps in a couple of years we can both get one. 😀
