They are banking on the laptop/tablet hybrid with an OS that allows complete diversity across phones, consoles, tablets, PCs etc...
Personally I think the first one to integrate phone service into a full sized tablet will be able to recapture a significant share of the cellphone device market as well.

The iPad is for general users who do a little bit of surfing and Facebook. My wife has a Kindle - similar - and does Facebook on it, reads her magazines, and plays solitaire on it. That's it.
I need a bit more and I need to be able to install my own software on it. I need a computer, not a browser. I need to install programs that the iPad doesn't have, so I can work form the road.
I have a Dell inspiron flip screen. I use it mostly on the road as a small laptop, but also as a tablet here at home.
This is perfect - It's much smaller than a laptop, and only slightly bigger than a iPad. I can run anything I want on it.
