They're not good for surfing the web either, they're just better than phones, purely because of the larger screen. They still have all the same limitations, especially with the lack of a keyboard. I could browse Reddit or HN on a tablet, but there's no way to write my own comments longer than maybe one sentence because there's no keyboard. So it's fine for reading news stories, but that's about it; anything that involves interaction is just too cumbersome to bother. And if you suggest hauling around a separate keyboard, now you've made it so I might as well just bring my laptop.
