Well I'm looking at tablets at the moment. I'm not sure why precisely since I'm not entirely certain what it will add to my life. The choices however are varied and I'm interested to hear from tablet owners/users about what they have and what they do with it.
Which "ecosystem" did you opt into? What was the main draw for your choice of tablet? What do you use it for? Do you game on it? Are you happy with it, or looking to replace it with a more suitable model? How does it fit into your life amongst phones, desktops, laptops, smart TVs and smartphones?
If you don't own one, do you plan to buy one? If so, which one do you think you'll buy and why? So far, I'm most tempted by the full X86 Windows tabs running on the Intel Atom platform. I understand that the app store is severely lacking compared to the competition, but the main draw stems from the ability to run full Windows 32-bit programs in addition to the finger-friendly apps. I can't see a personal benefit to an Android tab since my phone already runs it and thus, all android apps too.
For discussion value, what do you think is the future for tablets/smartphones/laptops in the competition for our attention? What are the best/must have apps/games? What do tablets do better than anything else? What do they lack compared with other hardware?
