iPads work very nicely with Bluetooth keyboards. Also, close to 100% of the

use a computer.

Try telling that to loads of people round here; lots of students at the University are attempting to write essays and take lecture notes on iPads and other Tablet computers with the onscreen keyboard. Having spent buckets on an iPad they really don't have anything left for a laptop.

I, being a crafty type, have solved this problem; I have a tatty-old, second-hand Pentium IV in every place I am likely to spend any length of time, and have just revived my Macintosh Powerbook 180 for when I get really desperate and cannot control myself until I get to a stationary computer.

Needless to say, I am the leading fashionista here in Bulgaria with my 20 year old lump of grey
plastic, LOL.

The only problem is that PDAs tend to have some sort of physical keyboard you 
can tap with a stylus or pencil, and the iPad mini will have about 2-3 letters 
under my fat fingers on its virtual keyboard, and
it is unlikely that its screen is going to take nicely to being tapped with a 
sharp pencil.
