The iPad 3 is coming out soon, I'll might consider getting one. They're really pretty and easy to use, even for a small child. The interface is good, and the touchscreen is very sensitive.
Also, Apple products have a lot of unique apps that platforms like Android don't have. The large number of users makes it more likely for good developers to put interesting games and programs on them.
The only drawback is that I've heard that Apple hires workers in China, and makes them work overtime in horrible conditions to make iPads and other things like Macbooks. This is like slave labour in my opinion, you should research it a bit before buying an Apple product.
