Once things get shrunk and that's your pointing device, it becomes all about UI.

Websites aren't all built for 1920x1080 because there are still a lot of people on smaller screens, same idea.

What is interesting that it does lead to, is the importance of apps over just using the browser in order to have a decent experience.

I have the 2Go PC tablet that is capacitive only, and yeah, after using it a while I can really see the need for the digitizer a'la the HP Slate on a Windows machine. On an iPad it doesn't matter so much, again because of apps.

The iPad has drawbacks in a corporate environment too now that we have one of those floating around, so I'm glad I didn't buy a fleet of either just yet.
