What's that?
Yes, a Windows 7 iPad.
Well, no, not an iPad running on Windows 7. But an iPad running Windows 7.
Let me show you a screen shot, so you'll believe me.

See?
Yes, that's an actual screen shot from my iPad. With my surfing the 'Net with Internet Explorer. And, yes, it looks like Windows 7 because it is Windows 7. And here's a photo of the iPad, running Windows 7:

How?
Actually, it's an app that allows the iPad to operate as a terminal for a virtual machine I'm running on my MacBook. I'm running Parallels 6
So, in reality, it's my Mac that's running Windows 7 in a virtual machine. And my iPad is a terminal of that virtual machine.
What would it take for you to do that the same way I did it?
MacBook Pro (maxed out): $3,336
Parallels 6: $79.99
Windows 7 Ultimate: $319.99
iPad 64GB 3G: $829
Doing it because I can: Priceless.
So your iPad finally came home?
