Several of the rumors leading up to the iPad announcement suggested that Apple had developed the iPad with education in mind, particularly as a delivery method for electronic textbooks. It will be interesting to see how all of that develops. I have to agree with you, Dave.

Apple is targeting an audience between the iTouch and MacBook, or perhaps instead is trying to make an audience for that niche. Yet I have a hard time seeing this as a useful tool for education because there are so many questions about productivity. Yes, iWorks is available. What about printing? What about keyboard usability and durability? What about transfer to other devices, especially within a Windows network? I would love to see a mid-range solution for education from Apple, but this does not seem to be it. Clearly this device is not targeting an education audience.
