A computer would do that, but a tablet will too and is cheaper and much more convenient.
The final step from a computer and its keyboard was when people started texting on their phones, and it was just another step and in fact easier to text on a tablet. So the keyboard is not necessary any more for most people, therefore the tablet now has taken over 2/3s of the computer market.

Agreed. Also, those who do need a computer for various tasks often have "downtime" when they want to browse the net or catch up on some tasks but not sitting at their computer or even with their laptop out. That's where the tablet hits the spot. They're not useful for everyone nor for everything, but I do think they fit for many.
I'm not surprised so many people want/have one.
