Each job's appropriate portable device is somewhere on that tablet to full laptop scale, which is why I foresee a swing back towards netbooks once the market settles down and the initial rush to tablets is over.

Maybe. But Apple isn't standing still. Ios5 will bring wireless syncing and ICloud services to Ios devices later this year.
I suspect once that happens, the lack of USB ports and SD cards will become much less of an issue. And there are already apps for wireless printing from Ios devices.
