Agreed. The additional heat and the fan noise of a laptop doesn't seem
to be too much for me.
I've got an Android tablet, and it has its own challenges. As it's not
running the latest tablet-based Android ("Ice Cream Sandwich") but
rather the earlier mobile-focused one, some web sites and apps come up
assuming you're running a tiny 240x320 phone viewport, rather than the
1280x800 tablet form. And some sites, like Hulu, have different
licensing for "mobile" delivery (especially TV shows) than for
computer-based: I can watch shows on my Thinkpad, but not on my
tablet. Seems pretty arbitrary to me.
