Why would an Apple tablet be any more useful than any of the other tablets that have already been released?

I don't know about you guys, but I much prefer a mouse/trackpad and keyboard over having to manipulate things with my hands directly. On the iPod touch/iPhone, it's quite simple, because you rarely have to move your hand -- only your finger. On a tablet-style PC, you're required not only to move your fingers, but also your hand/wrist, and at times your entire arm. It's fatiguing to say the least.

I'm under the impression that "cool" does not automatically mean "useful."
