But no. All it really is, is a touchscreen laptop, regardless of how you put it. A very overpriced touchscreen laptop.

I've not been one to buy something just because it's "hyped", I tend to do the opposite. If I want something, I'll get it but not because everyone else has it or because it's cool, then it'd just be a waste of money when a laptop does the same thing?

Anyway I don't have a laptop, my desktop is great.


Or what if I wanted one because I wanted one? You could make the exact same comment about smartphones - why do you need a powerful phone when a laptop and a basic phone would do?


Because you wouldn't be carrying a laptop around the streets etc to use the internet or to send an email...

Not the point. We managed without Internet and email on the move so why are smartphones popular - because people like the way they work.

iPad works great for me. Don't get me wrong, I'm not an overblown Apple fan, I just love the touchscreen simplicity of it over sat with a full blown laptop.
