Really? I must be missing something, because I just don't see the appeal.
My Nexus One appeals to me because I can't put my laptop in my pocket. My laptop appeals to me because I can't really type on my phone. A tablet really just sounds like the worst of both worlds. Not trying to be a buzz-kill, but genuinely curious: what's the driving factor here?
- ergo98 16y agoAt home I find that even with multiple traditional computers, I resort to using my smartphone for convenience and enjoyment reasons a lot. Little things like looking up a movie review, pulling up a phone number, or to answer questions like "what are the guys who play that position in the NFL?" I pull it up on my smartphone and voila. Now of course the restrictions of the smartphone are a bit of a pain. I would like something larger to more enjoyably interact with, hopefully with a higher resolution, but small enough and easy enough to use that it's just some accessory sitting on a coffee table. Of course in the connected world it can also control the cable box, start DLNA streams, etc. That's where a tablet comes into play. Preferably one in the 7-9" range.
