I don't own a tablet at the moment, but I would like an iPad. They look very nice. I voted for laptops, but it would depend on what I was doing. Generally, I would rather use a laptop, but if I was out in public, I would rather take a tablet with me because they're smaller and lighter.

I voted for tablets because they are just overall better than net books IMO. Well, at least the iPad is. And all of those other tablets like the Xoom and Playbook just copied the iPad. Its like Sony and Microsoft with Nintendo! Haha

I also have a iPad, and suggest it to anyone who is considering buying some type of tablet. It's basically a portable touchscreen computer with a iPod And a movie player. I use it all of the time, and I don't know what I would do without it. It is great because of the huge screen, and you can take it anywhere.

Tablets are just oversized phones and MP3 players. The only sort of tablet I have is a graphics tablet but that is totally different.

Obviously I chose Netbooks, I have one for school as they really good machines for school/work as they are small laptops with huge battery lives.

Tablet vs notebook eh?
Notebook easily wins.

Notebooks have about the same portibility
bigger screens
better processors (most of the time)
more space to store stuff on them
cheaper price
much better OS, so you're not limited.

This

vs. this
http://www.apple.com/ipad/

The former can do so much more, store so much more, is much more powerful, and is the same price as the latter.


oops, that was a notebook not a netbook. Netbook still wins because of it's price and the fact that it's still more powerful than a tablet.
