3G or Wifi only? Depends on how you plan to use it. 3G is about $100 more and you have to pay a monthly access fee. It gives you access anywhere. Good if you're on the move, in the car, etc.

Wifi is built in and gives you internet access wherever you can sniff a signal. Lots of free spots.

ebooks, many games, and other types of apps don't require a constant internet connection to use them.

There are rumors of iPad version 2 (with cameras) coming in April'ish timeframe. Maybe that'll put version 1 iPads on sale/clearance.
I DID get my iPad and just love it. Got the 3G and it is great while traveling in the car. Since we are mentioning our favorite Aps, I will mention a few:

I have Barnes and Noble, Kindle and iBooks for reading. Twitter, Ancestry, Pinochle XL Hand and Foot, Netflix, Spider, CNN, FarkleDice, Typing Test (free version--gives tips on typing with iPad, Scrabble $2.99 my favorite, Time Mag is free since we have a subscription, Google Earth. Flipboard.
