tablets and i* devices are toys
The hardware capabilities aren't used very good, but they anyway aren't toys. For professional audio usage there at least are amazing remote controls available. Until now I didn't find the kind of graphic app I need, but it's already nice to be able to make computer graphics, while having the freedom not to sit in front of a computer.
For artist they are very useful. Until now I won't recommend to buy a tablet PC, regarding to the policy of Apple and because common Android tablets, old hardware and old versions of Android, don't have the needed capabilities.
"Most" (really "most") users just follow the hype, everybody wants a modern mobile and/or tablet PC and they like to use social networks, but there's also the possibility to use tablet PCs for serious work, at least for arts.
You limit your way of seeing by yourself, that also explains your lack of insight, when other people try to explain the reason why forced dependencies are that bad.
For some people computers are tools. Don't call tablet PCs tools, just ^^^^ toys, greetz from Freud :D
First I thought myself they are toys only, but they aren't.
because you limit your imagination and because you are not willing to listen to others.
You might search the LAD and LAU archives for amazing examples about what already is possible with Android and iOS tablet PCs. There's much more possible, but we still tilt a little bit at windmills at the moment.
