No OS X, so no iPad. But like the Capt'n, I have an iPod touch 2G and no Tab. I'm guessing you don't own an n900. Correct? What ever eventually fits in between my n900 and my MBA will most likely be closer in capabilities to the MBA. That pretty much rules out the Tab. But like you, I bet I would find the Tab more useful than the current iPad. I'll probably be buying a PandaBoard in the next few months; that should be a good indicator of what to expect from the next generation of tablets.
