> Phones, surprisingly, seem to be continuing to eat away at the desktop use cases, which is expected, but I wasn't expecting them to be carrying the brunt of it, and there are ergonomic limits to how far that can go. I'm curious as to how the ergonomics of extended coding sessions on an iPad would work out. Hunching over a touch screen for eight hours a day seems like it could get horribly uncomfortable. Is anyone out there using an Android tablet for full time coding work?

You wouldn't need to be hunched over a touch screen though. bluetooth keyboard that either acts as a stand itself(like what Apple and Microsoft make for their respective devices), or a separate keyboard and stand. In that regard, it's not different than the ergonomics of a laptop, and people have been doing extended typing sessions on those for years.
