....no flash support....Nope just like the iPhone Apple believes that Flash is too unstable for their products.

They probably would rather see you use Quick Time rather than flash wouldn't they?

Plus the iPad is really limited since they chose to use the iPhone OS instead of MacOS.

As for my own vote, I don't see a need for one.

I find the form factor inconvenient.

Perhaps someday, when my laptop is obsolete, I might replace it with a tablet, but for now a tablet and a laptop are too close to the same functionality.

The only thing I see unique is greater comfort to sit on the sofa to read a book, and a little less bulky and easier setup than a laptop when travelling.

I have voted 'no'.

At the moment I cannot see where the functianality justifies the cost. I am more than happy with my laptop and it has far more ability than any tablet PC on the market. I would like to have a Sony e-reader as I read a lot. But the cost is so extreme that it does not make sense to me. I could buy a lot of books for the £170+ that an e-reader costs.
