Sakala, thanks for the inputs.

Andha 'light work' point mattum dhaan apply aagum. I don't even use apps from apple store. To me, I thing tablets are difficult to work with simply because I don't know how to handle them while browsing. Laptop-naa madila / table la vechikkalaam. Smartphone easyaa kaila vechikkalaam. Tabletkku onnu stand vaanganum illainaa kashtam dhaane.. Padam paakkuradhukku / book padikkiradhukku nallaa irukkum, especially in flights..

Anyway andha 99$ deal thirumba vandhaa vaanguvEn, not for me. India vandhaa gift pannalaam friends/relatives

Nerd, you are having a problem with mechanical placement, handling/holding the tablet. not only you but many have this question.

not only this issue, there are lots of other issues for consumers. iPad didn't solve many of those issues but it did perfectly whatever it did and never crossed border. iPad is mainly not for ppl who open 30 to 40 tabs at a time in laptop and do rigorous multitasking(currently i have 21 tabs open). That's how iPad is evolving but Android tablets can multitask.

Now, the answer for your solution exists here and there, like Asus Transformer. You ore not only getting a way place the tablet but you are able to type, use touchpad, while ur device is charging from the battery in the base.

In future, once the raw computing power of PC is available with tablet pc's, then the bigger applications, packages (like compilers, bulk data processing, batch processing etc) will simply be ported to tablet OSes like Android & iOS.

At that time, you will not find only two kinds of devices, ie a Computer and Laptop, instead you will find devices in many shapes, various screen sizes.

And there will be Universal Keyboard stands which will dock almost all kinds of tablets, paving way to hold the tablet like a laptop, at the same time, having many extra functions.

Now itself some tablets come with a inbuilt stand on back, where you can place the tablet on table like a digital foto frame.

So, either this stands or Keyboard docks will help if you dont want to hold it. Other times, it will be fun to use holding it in one hand, anyways you need not hold for long time Samsung, apple & notion Ink tablets are known for holding with ease for long time, and they are slim and weighs less compared to other tablets. You wont like to hold a laptop for too long but tablets are comparatively less weight and easy to hold.

Nerd, regarding ur tablet holding issue? why holding? how do you place your laptop, same way place it on a table, or on a lap! Simple! And Tablets anyways are less than half the weight of laptops. Hope y have seen the ipad smart cover! It gives you elavation easy for typing, u also can place it like a foto frame, and protects the screen when not in use! thast 3 in 1
