For one thing, the bigger keyboard and screen make it easier to do. I currently back up all my essential files to an SD card, and take it with me whenever I leave the house. I want to keep my backup process about like that, but have the SD card living in the tablet instead of my wallet. Also, for convenience in other tasks, it's be nice if the tablet could share its files just like the other computers in my home network. I'll probably try that pyrdesktop app you mentioned.

Thanks! --
