I'm very intrigued. Not something I'd buy the first couple of generations. But down the road when the kinks are worked out and prices are in the $300-400 range (hopefully) I'd likely pick one up.

I'd love an all in one portable that I can surf the net, read books/magazines in color, watch movies etc. on. A tablet would be more portable than a netbook--which I don't really need since I already have a good laptop.

Even better if you can write on documents with a stylus that works better than the tablet pcs I've tried out. And I'd think Apple could pull that off given how much better the touch screen on the iPhone is compared to other devices. I hate the touch screen on my LG Voyager.
There already IS one of these,(or will be, next month), it just doesn't run MAC OSX or have Apple's name on it. I don't know about the stylus input on it, since I haven't gotten my hands on one, (yet), but it meets your criteria in the other areas you mentioned. (Unless you can't live without Mac, that is)
