    It's simple. For the price you would spend on a tablet, get a laptop. They are more fully functional, have keyboards, are portable, have a full operating system and can run full programs.

    I'm sitting here posting at DF while I wait on the mail lady with my wifes new laptop. I'm not sure where tablets actually fit in to todays life style. Now that its mine I read web versions of my magazines watch youtube in a pinch. The problem is I could do all of these things on my phone, so I'm not sure I even like the tablet.

    I haven't had any time with a netbook? They seem dumb.
    My tablet came very handy on my roadtrips. Loaded up some of my tv shows, books, and some games on there. Tablets make for a good "lightweight" browser, e-reader, and media. Yes a laptop can do all the same, but when it comes to taking a device on the road with me, so far I've grabbed my tablet and it hasn't disappoint since.
    New to Android? Please read this.
