I've got a keyboard/cover for my 10" Galaxy Tab, and the combination makes
an OK light-duty laptop. The main drawbacks are that Android requires a lot
of screen-poking to select things and locate the cursor, and that the tablet
and the Bluetooth keyboard require two different chargers. The various
Android apps seem to handle the usual run of stuff I get in e-mail,
browsing, etc.
The tablet/keyboard is certainly enough of a "solution" to use for a weekend
or more, and it's small and light.
