What I see a lot at airports is: people traveling with ALL of the following:

- mobile phone

- iPad

- Laptop

So each time another smaller device gets invented people just _add_ it instead of the smaller devices replacing the bigger ones. So despite all the technical integration, the weight of people's hand luggage (gadgets + adaptors) actually goes up, not down!



I’m about to get on a plane with all of those and a remarkable tablet.

The iPad is the one I’m considering leaving, but I think I’d rather watch media on the iPad than try to bring an Apple TV.

I tried to replace the computer with the iPad, and even with the app listed above, it just wasn’t there for me.


Yeah exactly and each device has a time & place imo too, while I said travel without - I typically don't. But when it comes to the device I can wield in a given scenario it absolutely depends, having the options is great.
