Clearly you do not envision using a tablet in the same ways as me!

CPU/GPU - crucial for smooth video playback, crispness of interface. The average consumer will definitely notice lag.
video out - because I want to use it as a portable media player, allowing me to play videos on TVs in hotels/homes of friends and family when on the road
cams - video Skype. I don't much care about the rear-facing one.
GPS - to use as navigation in (rented) automobiles and for geocaching.

I already carry devices that perform these functions, and use them all the time. If I can replace some of them with the Tab, it becomes worth acquiring another device.
