"...one third said that they didnt see a point of a tablet computer - until they got one."

And I won't see the point or get one until the prices drop considerably. I'm in that 45-54 demographic, but I don't know what I would do with one. I only spent about $300 on my most recent desktop, a Dell 'scratch and dent'. I don't value mobility enough to pay almost twice that for a less capable device. Just me, I guess.
