I think the one advantage a proper tablet (or maybe large screen e-ink devices like the Que) can do that laptops/netbooks can't is be a good device for comfortably reading and marking up academic articles, text books, business documents etc. just like you would with a printout or paper book and a highlighter/pen.
You just can't do that comfortably with a laptop or netbook or a smartphone as they're too big and bulky. Most tablet/slate PCs are too bulky as well, and cost too much as they have more computing power, disc space etc. than what is needed for that purpose.
But I do agree that Tablets aren't a threat to e-ink or dedicated readers in general. Again, there's plenty of room for all kinds of devices that have the ability to access e-books.
