What a joke. The author seems to believe that Apple invented tablets, and that people would rather carry around a tablet than a smartphone.<p>Reality check, the reasons for NOT buying a tablet still applies, and whilst the HP slate might change that, the iPad certainly wont.<p>But yeah, as written by machrider, the heading here is more intended as flamebait, and the author of the article only used TV adverts for research (rather than perform non-biased research).
