I have used touch input in Windows before. Even with slightly bigger elements it just doesn't feel as natural to use; It's still clear that this was optimized for a mouse as apposed to a finger.

1. Hulu plus is annoying, though I don't think that's going to be enough to convience someone to buy a Windows tablet. (And for the more tech minded there are ways around it.)
2. The average user has likely never even heard of VPN.
3. With the kind of hardware that these low power tabletPCs would be running on, playing media in the background may not be the best idea anyway. Which brings up another point.... You say this device could handle either task equally well, but really their limited processing power would make them less than ideal platforms for stuff like photo or video editing, or playing modern PC games.
