Survey shows tablets overtaking notebooks by 2016

For sure, you can hook up a keyboard and use the tablet as "portable" laptop/netbook for emails/docs and with the cloud and WiFi/3G there is no need for cables and local storage.
 
Well its a stupid article actually because with stuff like surface and other windows 8 ultrabooks soon to take over the market they are both tablets and laptops and alot of hybrids in between so more like convergence of the tech than anything else....especially once the prices come down.
 
Personally I suspect that by 2016 there will be such a smooth continuum between 'tablet' devices and 'laptop' devices that it will be difficult to differentiate them by sales.
