I want a tablet device for reading and marking up academic PDFs and academic books, maybe for grading and marking up student papers and e-mailing them back to them etc. Also with being my PDA, being a good web browser, video player, having games etc.

That said, I don't think the Apple tablet is likely to do any of the mark up stuff, as it will likely be a big iPhone and thus be a finger touch device with no stylus support--just virtual keyboard etc. and I firmly want stylus markup as I want to highlight and annotate like I do with pen and paper today.

So I don't think the Apple tablet will fit my needs. So my main hope is it will achieve some success and lead to a flood of different tablets coming out so I can find one that fits my need and budget in the next few years (I'm in no hurry).
