Maybe it's just me, but I could see many uses for a tablet beyond just reading in the bathroom or in bed. For any job where you're standing/ walking and taking notes (real estate agents, etc), it's awkward to try to open a macbook, and the iphone is too tedious.

Pair a tablet with a solid voice to text app, and it'd be pretty useful for lawyers, reporters, etc.

Note taking is not just for real estate agents, either. One thing I'm surprised people aren't talking about more is that a well-designed tablet could be a hit in college and even primary school lecture halls and classrooms. Considering Apple's historical prominence in the higher education market, this seems like a natural target for them.

Still a small niche.

You mean something like an Apple Newton?

Without the arkward pen?
