Tangential question, not intended to the poo-poo this, which I think is great, but more of an information query: Do people actually find this better than upgrading your phone to do tethering and using an ultra book?
I attempted to use my iPad in exactly the way he described, and it was largely unsuccessful after about a week honeymoon period. I didn't even have that many requirements. SSH plus a web browser was sufficient.
The main issues I had related to the glossy iPad display, the crappy keyboard support (not all control keys supported), detached keyboard making lap use... awkward, and pointing to things on the screen (for cut and paste or rdp use) was tedious. Almost all of which were solvable in some indirect way, but kind of made the exercise pointless if you have the money to spend on an ultrabook.
