OK, an ebook is great for the train or the plane I guess but at home
use you're laptop.

That wouldn't impress me. Seriously, people wasting money on the
latest tech junk to look impressive has the opposite effect. Can you
type on it? Is it going to replace your laptop and your phone or is it
just more crap you have to carry around? I can see it one day
replacing the laptop but It would need a stand to hold it up and a
keyboard to attach to it. Oh wait, now it's a laptop.
