b.) Microsoft Surface Pro (2) for the rest.
Instead of stumbling through iTunes or Google Play, I simply can install whatever program I like. And it performs great.

But I frequently use Microsoft's OneNote. Not for handwriting recognition, but simply for jotting down notes.
From the touch and feel, #2 would be Google Chromebook Pixel.
But I sold it a few weeks ago. Personally, I simply didn't find a reasonable usage pattern for the (great) touchscreen on a unit, that's basically a notebook.

So #2 actually is my Dell Latitude 10. Another Windows 8 tablet.
Extremely light. And the exchangeable battery is brilliant.
Thanks, I was looking at the Surface Pro 2 when my home computer crashed. So, the tablet is off the table until the new computer is set up. I really, really wanted a 3 in 1, but the market is just not there yet, maybe next year. I like lots of tech, too - not quite as many as you have, but a lot! So, a tablet is next on my list - maybe on black Friday... no, no, I must resist!
