Well my mother has 9-10' notebook, it's pretty light, the only bad thing about it is the fact that it's bloody pink, otherwise it's already reasonable small, has OK storage(250GB or something), runs windows 7 and can easily be carried around/placed on your lap if you're on a train or something ( I took it on the bus one day when I had to take it somewhere, it was a bit embarassing sitting there with a pink netbook with flower design on the lid). Also like 1/2GB RAM or something, and the best thing is it cost around £200 about 6 months ago, that's like $300, and laptops in UK are quite expensive too. If it has access to the internet, it's pretty much a computer, so I was even able to play minecraft on it(I think, don't remember if I did..). Whereas apps offer menial things and social and addictive games, angry birds and all that shizz - which I by the way get on my android phone.

Technicially netbook computers are vastly superior. Much higher capabilities and lower price.
These Android and Apple devices are easier to carry around and mostly just for mobile entertainment.

That's my point, there are plenty of devices that offer EXACT same things as tablets - smartphones - iPhone/iTouch, numerous android devices, windows 7 devices etc. The only drastic difference being the screen size.. It's weird how people see the appeal in these and not the netbooks.
