Why a tablet over a small laptop?
I tried using my Nexus 7 for notes and such...and it was somewhat difficult. Had to carry around a bluetooth keyboard with it in order to actually make it usable. My wife has an Asus Transformer with Keyboard-battery dock (used for around $200 or so), and she has been using that for small stuff, but is wanting to switch back to a full laptop, but keep it small.
