Being that the "mouse" is your finger touching the screen, the integrated keyboard seems like an ok choice. You wouldn't want the display that far away from your hands during active use.

Ok, that makes sense, especially if you take into account using the keyboard as a way to keep the display from tipping over when touched.

I'm sorry, but I see the iPad as an ergonomic disaster all around. The position that Steve demoed on stage is something that must terrify experts in that field. You're placing this thing on your lap and typing on it? So that means you're hurting your neck, eyes, and wrists all at the same time. Granted, you probably wouldn't do that for a long while, but it's still not a good idea.
