Can someone explain just why everyone wants a tablet system?
While I agree 100% that visually this thing looks pimp, and it's stroking my futuristic looking tech-boner a good bit...but why would I want this instead of a personal computer or a laptop?
I've used a tablet as my work machine before and it really wasn't anything special. It even supported multitouch gestures and it was hokey at best, broken at worst. Navigating around the interface with a stylus was cool, but in order for the system to be portable, it had shitty specs, and this was a new system only a year ago.
What everyday activity are people doing where they need to be drawing on their screen? Outside of students and graphic designers, I'm not seeing the market for this. It's more awkward to use on your lap without a desk, and with a desk it'll be flush against the surface causing you to have to lean over to see straight down on it.
I don't know, I was obsessed with the idea of tablets until I got one and foun out they're not the massive leap in usability and productivity that I was expecting...and at least that model had a keyboard.
Looks nice, but I'm not seeing the use case where I need this.
