Most comments I saw from people that have used them so far have expressed surprise that one or two handed typing is quite easy/natural. A lot of people can type fairly quickly (my brother can type unbelievably fast on his iPhone) on tablets now. It could work.
My experience is that most iPhone users still (after a few years) look at their fingers as they type. The promotional iPad videos show slow, deliberate, two finger hunt and peck typing.
If the average touch-typist gets to even 40WPM on the iPad I'd be amazed.

The current college generation has been trained by years of thumb based cell phone typing. It's a whole new game out there...
