It occurred to me that a joke could run something like "wow, that's an interesting picture of the eee pc being balanced on the upraised hand -- how do you use it like that?"

The point is, you can't hold an eee pc in your hand particularly well, and inputting text while you're doing it is more difficult still.

That is what makes me think that the central point of a tablet should be hand-centered, not pocket-centered. The cool thing is that you can hold it in your hand and use it and it's a computer. The difference between it and, say, the eee pc, is that you can make the Nokia tablet bigger and it still could be used while be held in the hand, whereas I don't think even the smallest eee pc (mine is the 1000h, with a 10 inch screen) can comfortably be used that way.

Theme song for the future Nokia tablet: "He's got the whole Internet -- in his hand; she's got the whole Internet -- in her hand, they've got the whole world in their hands."

Or something like that, a takeoff on an ancient hit song.

Or, for those still fixated on their pockets, "he's got the whole internet -- in his pocket," but that just doesn't have the same ring, does it?
