Why use an Internet Tablet at all? Just use a computer.

Why would Apple put video out on an iPod Video?

Some people like to have video with them on the go, audio for that matter too. But sharing it with 5 people (my family, for example) with the N810's small screen and small speakers is a no-go. Why not output it to their TV. I don't always want to carry a computer, but the N8x0 is likely to be with me.
