I have tablets (iOS and android ones) and netbooks (11" macbook air, some old msi netbook)... they have different uses that rarely overlap.

There are quite a few things that tablets are far superior than netbook form factors (mainly viewing documents and table-less computing); but it's a matter of form factor and proper ui/ux.

Don't write them off based on criteria used to evaluate traditional 'pc'.
