But I'm not happy about it. And I'm not giving up my laptop or desktop. I happen to like gadgets, so having multiple devices is not a bad thing. But some other people would prefer to limit the number of devices they have, and the iPad often cannot fulfill all of their needs.

I would say that there are lots of users like you (I'm a laptop owner, myself , by the way). I'm also saying that there are lot of consumers-probably the majority -who simply don't need and don't want to deal the complexity and options of a laptop (shocking, but true
). For such folks, a tablet will be sufficient.
There will still be a lot of folks that need a PC for work purposes, but they'll use them at work. At home, most consumers will lean back with a tablet , smartphone, e-ink reader , game console, smart TV or some other type of post PC device. If they have a hobby, where they need to do something like advanced video or graphics editing , then they'll buy a laptop.
As for multiple devices, people will own as many devices as they wan tand can afford. Its imoportant to realize that you don't actually NEED any of these devices. There's a billion Chinese who don't own any of these devices- including the "MUST HAVE" laptop-and yet they somehow go on living.
