I view the tablet a little differently. I want a pocketable constant companion. Multimedia is useful (creation and consumption), Internet related communication is a necessity but so is basic PIM with a touch of CRM that synchronizes with desktop and web applications. All this should seemlessly intrgrate. Today marketly is all to likely to define products by putting them into function boxes without overlap. Wanted features are deleted in order to not pirate market share from other products manufactured by the vender. The Windows pocket PC is an extreme example. The Nokia Internet Tablets is a little guilty as well but the fortunate choice of Linux and the open source community filled in many of the holes that Nokia left out. It makes sense to market new products to predisposed niches but that doesn't mean that the application potential should be designed out of the picture. Touch and gestures have great potential but let's not limit functionality by force fitting the UI technique on functions it may not be well suited to.
