Yeah, I've never had any interest in a smartphone, so that's part of the appeal of tablets to me I guess.
Maybe I'd feel less need for one if I had a smart phone and a laptop. But I don't need internet, e-mail etc. on the phone enough to pay for data plans as I'm spend the vast majority of my time at home or at the office, stay in hotels with wifi when I travel etc. so I wouldn't use it enough to justify the $30+ a month for data plans.
But I'm very interested in tablets as a more full featured e-reader, a "surf the net" on the couch" machine, random apps, watching videos in bed etc. And playing around with my girlfriend's iPad this weekend just reaffirmed that I do really want and enjoy using something of that form factor.
Just a matter of waiting a bit, letting more tablets come out, and making sure I get the best one for my needs.
