Same here. Usually a transaction for me goes like this. Customer: Do you have that HTC Phone? (Because nobody ever knows that it is called the HD2 for whatever reason) Me: You don't want that phone, you want this one (Pulls out Vibrant) Customer: Oh I want that one!

Maybe it's just me, but I have yet to find the purpose of tablet pc's. Why would I need a touchscreen device that doesn't fit in my pocket? Why wouldn't I just get a netbook? Especially since the iPad doesn't even have full Flash support? I'm sure the Tab will, but I still see no purpose of it, it's just another delicate device that will be broken after a matter of time.

I'm sure the same things were said about past innovations that are now widely adopted. If nobody ever pushed the envelop on what "could be" we wouldn't have those electronic toys that brings all of us to this site to debate about daily. Personally, I don't have a need for an iPad-like device but inventions like these are stepping stones to a device that i may have an interest for down the line. Whoever thought that the traditional computer would be in danger of bein replaced by the mobile phone? Technology is a beautiful thing.

I'll accept that, very reasonably stated. Most of it seems useful, I just don't understand the fact that it doesn't fit in the pocket. I think cell phones could push it to 5" and still fit in our pockets but be as big as we could want.
