The reason I bought a computer in the first place was so I didn't have to write. What would I want a tablet for?
 
But, if you're an artist/designer who wants to flesh-out ideas quickly...

I'd be all over an Apple tablet like a fly on stink.
 
Funny you mention that... I'm fanatical about carrying my good ol' Moleskine notebook with me. Wouldn't leave it behind any day of the week. But I'd ALSO love to carry a tablet/PDA combo (I know some of you reading this are already glazing over...).

* sigh * The tired old rant continues.

Bah! :rolleyes:
 
if it could pretty much be a remote display as well, kinda like a multi graphical login that's wireless...that's what I really want, and give the ability to switch between several computers...that would be cool...and nice pda features so i can get rid of my stupid powerbook, well, give it to my girlfriend at least....
 
what would we do on a tablet draw, i see if your in graphics design that would be ok but otherwise i don't think so.

Will the new 15"al powerbooks come out already it seems like there taking forever. and whats this i hear steve jobs isn't gona be at macworld

It could be an Ebook reader. Art pad, and means of inputing hand drawn notes and drawings while in class or at work.

Because you don't have easy access to a mouse and/or scanner on the go, I think this feature is a no-brainer for laptops. I would much rather navigate with a pen input that a stick or touchpad.
