To each their own. I don't own a tablet, but used my roommates iPad for a few weeks to see what all the fuss was about. I constantly longed for my laptop, which was far more comfortable to use, faster (in terms of web navigation), larger screen space, etc.

Sure I use a phone less than a laptop, but I absolutely need both.
