I wanted to write an update of the TF after my trip, but I'm tired and lazy. Suffice the say, the flexibility of tablet and netbook worked pretty well for the various combinations of planes, pools and hotel room during the week. Watching movies and playing games in tablet mode and then docking to write a few journal entries was money. The major downside I've found is most of the (free) games require an internet connection to play, because they want to serve you ads or phone home to track all your habits. I'm not sure if this is common among tablet, android or just free games.
I also had a couple of people who'd read about it approach me to ask if I could demo it because they were seriously considering it.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
