I think tablets fill a niche spot in portable electronics. they have a few really neat, useful functions/apps that can't be replicated by (or as well as) a smartphone or laptop - as mentioned however, these are really niche and it'd only be used in very specific circumstances. example: i've seen them used in live music production where a smartphone or laptop would have too small and finicky controls to be readily used on stage.

but that's in my mind at least; tablets are oddly common despite these very specific uses. perhaps the wider market sees more of a use for them or it's simply fashionable to have one.

i kinda liked the older 00's portable tech though. the trend was to try and make everything as small and handy as possible and I just can't fit a tablet into my trouser pocket you know?

anyway, otaku snow from an earlier thread.
