In my interaction with people, I have found that many people have expressed dissatisfaction with tablets, despite what the makers and the media made us believe, that the tablets are the laptop killers. Not only have the tablets not killed laptops, the number of tablet sales have stalled.

    Why?



_refugee_:

Not too long ago I bought an iPad and keyboard (Logitech) as my laptop replacement. Literally all I do on my laptop is surf the internet and write: the biggest problem I've had so far is that sometimes, Wordpress and the iPad don't sperak the same language. It's all been surmountable though.

Tablets may not be killing laptops, but for some consumers I think they're a smart replacement strategy. i love my iPad. There are some very small and minor things that I have to still use a laptop for, but any laptop will do including my work laptop, and the problems I encounter have more to do with app and website functionality than the iPad itself.

I love my iPad. I can see why it wouldn't be a good replacement for a more serious user of technology, though.
