    Tablets/slates seem pretty impractical to me; especially for gaming. They're too large to easily hold with your hands or carry around with you, and they're too small and underpowered to use as your main computer.

    I find it vague when they say '49% of the gaming public.' I wasn't asked. Why not just say '49% of the people that visit a certain site want the iTablet ahead of the DS and PSP.'

    Though since there's about 8 good games between both of them, I kind of understand.

      Sampling is a much quicker and fairly accurate way of doing things, credit to the website for picking 3000 'cause that's quite a large sample but the website in particular isn't exactly the best to put a gaming/gadget related survey on. Also there's much more than 8 good games on each of the PSP and DS, nevermind between them.

    I'd take the tablet. I already have PSP and DS.

      Well duh, but if you could only have one of the three, which one?
