tablets!

[dugindeep]

I'm thinking of getting rid of my laptop (which I haven't touched in like three months) and buy a tablet that I can easily travel with but also use a keyboard on. There is a big part of me that wants to stick with an iPad since it will sync with and operate just like my phone, but I also don't want to randomly drop a ton of money if I don't need to (does anyone, really? hah).

So any suggestions on what to get/do regarding a tablet that will be multi-functional for movies, games, a word processor, etc.?
