Unless you actually like the tablet paradigm and write faster than you type (which I don't) IMO tablet PCs aren't worth the tradeoffs. Thus far every tablet I've used (two-three Fujitsus, every Acer since the first one (C102Ti?), the Toshiba, a few Viewsonics) has been slower than an equivalently specified PC. Also, the screens due to the digitizer appear rather blurry and washed out. The newer models are better but it's STILL nowhere near as bright and crisp as a standard notebook.
