Should I purchase the MacBook Pro or iPad?
I have a Samsung Impression phone, iPod Touch 2G, iPod Nano 5G, and a Windows Vista Laptop. I'm looking for something to replace my phone and iPod Touch. I considered the Dell Streak and iPad, but both aren't really what I need. The Dell Streak is not a tablet, would accommodate my needs, but it's big to carry around. The Android OS seems good, but is limited to apps and 20% of the apps share data. It has 2 cameras, which is a plus, but is not enough to convince me to get it. The iPad however, has a large screen and 200,000+ apps, vs. the Android Market: 40,000. It actually is the best way to consume content, but doesn't run Flash (only HTML5). It has zero cameras, and will have major upgrades in the future.
The MacBook could definitely replace my Vista laptop, but I'm not going to carry it around as a replacement to my iPod and phone. I know MacBooks are the best laptops, but I need something else for mobile content.
Is there any other options that can replace my existing laptop, phone, AND iPod? I seem to be under the Apple "envelope," so are there any other good products out there?

If you should ever even think of buying an apple computer(sorry for my agony), try buying a real computer and not a giant iTouch.=P Apples are really cool looking and good for video/audio editing.
Please don't get an iPad. Android based phones are really good. I've been happy with my Incredible so far.=) It replaced my iPod, my old iPhone, and my aging Falcon notebook.

Macbook professional. The Macbook professional has only approximately 3X the potential of the iPad and only approximately 2X the potential of the Macbook air. additionally, the macbook professional has a CD/DVD force, and the Macbook air and iPad dont. The iPad does not even run a actual OS, so i dont understand why all and sundry might pick it.
