OmniGraffle for iPad seems worth the price

I won't be buying an iPad until my laptop dies or obsolesces, but after reading reviews for iWork and OmniGraffle for the iPad, I think $50 is a fair price for OmniGraffle. Here's what I think I've learned: iWork is aimed at users who are extremely price sensitive (who apparently value their own time at less than $2/hr), impatient, and planning to do very little in the product on an iPad. I'm not sure who these people are, but I'm not one of them. Based on reviews, only Numbers appeals to me, and not much.

OmniGraffle seems to be aimed as users like me who expect to be able to do a lot, are willing to invest time and effort to learn how, and are willing to pay for enough functionality that one is not continually transferring back to a computer to do get things done.  When the time comes, and the reviews hold up, I'll gladly fork over $50.

I guess I am confused why all the hoopla continues to grow.  If you don't
like the price, don't buy it until you see some reviews on it.  If it is a
good products the reviews will show it; if not the reviews will show that as
well.  Apple has just dropped another great product and we should all be
smiling today.
