I agreed with that until recently. I purchased one for a client to use for flight charts and what not while flying. After some time with it I think it definitely has it's place. I have logmein ignition set up on it as well for him to access his Win7 desktop and it works flawlessly, especially with a wireless keyboard. I have basically eliminated his need to carry a laptop for the most part. The touch screen also enhances the Win7 experience once you get used to it which takes a few minutes.
It's not for everyone but is a great device when coupled with the right apps. The book reader on it is very nice as well although I do think eye fatigue will be greater with it than with a kindle or the like.
