That's what a netbooks for, and better than a tablet, you can put it on your lap and have 2 hands free to operate it.
I use my Macbook on the toilet, in bed, on the sofa etc all the time and have never thought "hey I wish this didn't have a keyboard, and I wish I had to hold the screen with one hand and try to type one handed on the other on the screen"
- huhtenberg 17y agoDon't know about you, by my browsing of the Internet and reading of the PDFs requires virtually no typing. Ideally I'd like to have a notebook with a detachable touch display, and the tablet is as close as it gets to that.
- smokinn 17y agoI want a tablet so that I can read a pdf on the metro on my way to work. Often there are enough seats for everyone in the morning so I suppose a netbook would work then but in the evening I'm usually standing so keeping something on my lap wouldn't work. Holding a light tablet and scrolling down by sliding a finger down the screen would be awesome though.
