Thus, the big winner of the last years, the smart-phone.

Just about the same form-factor of the palm, with the variety of uses of 
a tablet. Granted that it's the one thing you'll take with you anywhere, 
along with your wallet (and pretty soon it'll be *the* wallet).
The tablet, most of times, feels like a fifth wheel. (Unless
one is a big time media/content viewer, I'm not) .
I wish the Tech world would have stopped trying to re-invent the wheel -
with "just-the-best-size-tablet" and move on to other hardware 
breakthroughs.
(And on a same note for the adjacent discussion on this list), the great
devices are all here, or on their way, we just need the unregulated 
airwaves to actually use them.
