There has been a craze for tablets this year. Ever since the Apple iPad has launched, there has been a 'senseless' hype by the 'brainless' celebs over it. And following are fans.
Personally, i've been looking at the tablets for sometime now, and i never found them much interesting. Though you can do anything with them on the move, but just look at their practicality. You still need a desktop for your full HD needs. Image processing,sound editing, SFX,virtualisation, etc need a full desktop. Without any optical drives, the tablets are a nuisance,considering that you want to play your console games. Plus limited storage,and limited expansion options make it a headache. Then you have vunerability issues with it. Then again, its not portable because its too big to fir in a pocket. Then what is it that makes people run over it. I keep on wondering.
And just in case you didn't read the para, here's the summation of the flaws i found
-Low computing strengths
-Bad replacement for phones or desktops
-Restricted onboard storage
-Limited expandable storage/No expandable storage
-NO OPTICAL drives
-Might even be harmful for the eyes if not held at a reasonable distance
I'd better prefer a netbook anyday. Infact, the ultrasmall netbooks by Sony are way much preferable for me than investing in a tablet.
