That's because previous (and current) tablets really haven't been very good and have tried to be all things to all people - a full desktop OS shoehorned into a device it wasn't intended for, and with minimal effort to adapt it to its new surroundings; in other words, a
PC in tablet form.

I disagree; I don't think we've even begun to imagine the uses that something like this will be put to when it starts shipping in six weeks or so, with apps optomised for the bigger screen.
We'll see.
