The case against tablets
As I hunt for new computing hardware, I'm coming to the conclusion that tablets are simply a mistake. And yes, strongly informed by using one as a primary device for 5 years.
An ultra-light laptop has better utility and vastly superior privacy.
The one killer function, reading documents, seems better served by an e-book reader.
(Podcasts and videos are other possible fits, the first is possible on at least some e-book readers.)
Looking strongly at Onyx Boox (10" or 13"), and Remarkable2. I'd prefer avoiding Android, but the Remarkable's utterly inexcusably small storage and lack of keyboard input are looking to be dealbreakers.
iPod's lack of a usable Linux shell similarly harshes my mellow.
(I need to develop this argument more, interested in others' thoughts.)
