Yes, I attended a meeting yesterday where I felt the odd one out, as I 
was using a netbook: the only other computers being used were Apple iPads.

But Apple better sell as many as they can, before tablet computers 
become low price commodity items.

Android tablet computers with 7 inch screens are now selling for $150.

Some companies are including a "free" tablet computer (or a netbook) 
with a wireless data subscription, for less than $10 a month.
