Tablets replacing PC????

In a recent article:
http://www.baselinemag.com/c/a/Features/Tablets-Will-Replace-PC-Say-Users-895994/?kc=BLBLBEMNL09022011INDEPTH
the discussion was on Tablet Computers replacing PC's.

The article had eight factors:
- more than 60% of respondents said that tablets will someday serve as their primary computing devices
- BUT ... only 15% of tablet users had anti-virus software or encrypted data
- 2/3rd of tablet users don't back up their data
- tablet users like the portability of the tablet - using them on vacation and even in the bathroom and bedroom!!
- most tablet users say it makes them more productive
- and ... many said it improved their work / life balance

For "real' work, I'm not sure I want a tablet; but I do use the iPad for the funner things - reading an e-book, browsing the web, reading email, and ... maybe ... in the bathroom and bedroom!!!
