I'm resurrecting this to see if there is any other feedback on how y'all use your tablet PCs.

With the current Thinkpad sale, I considering upgrading my X60s and am looking at either the X200 or the X200 tablet. My primary reason for looking at a tablet is because it would make it easier to mark up the large PowerPoint report and presentation files we generate and send corrections to our admin dept. (when not traveling, I home office.)

It is just cumbersome to have to mark up and FAX or scan changes in dozens of graphs and charts (I edit the text myself) or inserting comments in the doc and emailing it back - and I always find myself thinking "there's gotta be a better way."

Downside as I see it would be the additional weight.

Any pros/cons from experience with your tablet PCs?
