Not to burst your bubble, but adding a keyboard to a tablet makes it a touchscreen laptop. It's perfectly fine if that's what you enjoy, but you're not really obsoleting laptops if the alternative is a smaller laptop.

The difference is that you can use for some cases (reading, browsing, quick email) just the tablet. Is not that the concept is really different from a laptop (hey, a portable computer), but I think it brings it to the next level.
