cheers

I really do swing between the two ideas , Im really happy with using my iphone for games, reading(short), web(brief), music, email, calendar, as a vnc client to control my mac at home and then other bits and bobs.

Thats mostly what I would use my tablet for as well as probably typing a little and watching movies.

So actually a big iPhone would do for me 95% of the time. Not sure what I would gain by having a larger more functional OS on there?

however if that were its design i would not want to pay more than $600.

If it were a small computer that I can dock at home and use my bluetooth keyboard with allowing me to lose the laptop then I would be prepared to pay more like $1000.

Key differences i would want for teh extra cost are a full OSX and at least 200Gb storage.
