I used netbooks extensively on the road before Kindle and iPad. Netbooks worked fine for most of my vanilla uses, but I found them a pain to read books on, especially in bed and such.
To me, there are tradeoffs to netbook, tablet, e-reader forms, and it's just a matter of picking what works best for individual need. I like my devices, but I don't recommend the same for everyone, because we're all different. Personally, I've been wanting tablet form for a long time, and I'm looking forward to even better ones.

Good point; it's all up to the needs of the individual user as to which device best suits their purposes.
Don't get me wrong; I'd still
love to an iPad!
...because I'm cool!
