The iPad, for example, has no USB ports, only Apple's proprietary 30 pin connector. In order to connect a USB device you'll need to purchase a $30 adapter and your apps will need to support that storage. I guess the thing to keep in mind is that a tablet doesn't have a "full" computer OS on it so you'll be missing features you might currently be taking for granted. As for banking, if you can do it on the web you can do it on a tablet.

Break out of the iPad world.
I can (and have) directly plug in an USB terabyte drive to my Asus tablet and explore the file system fine.
Same with the SD card slot.
