the Nokia tablet works on the in between. while in the cab, while in an elevator, while at dinner. its very casual and feels more acceptable on the go. i myself would honestly never buy a full size laptop. eee pc is the biggest form factor i would go.
I mostly use my Nokia at destinations. In meetings, or to check personal things even when I'm at a desk (my rss feeds, for example, or my to-do list). I not only don't need a full size laptop for that, I don't need an UMPC for it. The IT is just fine, and the one thing the N800 didn't have, that I wanted, and that the N810 does have, is the built-in keyboard without increasing the size of the device.

What I _DO_ need is storage. Which is why I'm looking forward to the release of either the Agere BluOnyx or the Seagate DAVE. Shove it in an organizer (that also has a pocket for my IT), but never have to touch anything other than my IT.
