Think of the post-PC tablets as replacing TVs/books/browsers/iPods in time spent consuming content. Content consumption devices (aka radio, TV, books, mp3 players) have not had a significant advance in decades. The browser was the first new conduit that moved people away from these devices. These people used a PC, but merely as a content consumption device, NOT as a content creation device! Now tablets - which are mostly hardware for browsers, becoming more so with 'cloud' services - are becoming personal content consumption devices. As long as there's a browser, it's a window to the world of content - not just the central authority's content. For so long producers have wanted to have a powerful computing device in every hand. Now that day is closer!
