Tell HN: There are probably a lot of people, myself included, for whom a keyboard is integral to our work, due to coding. If this is the main obstacle to using a tablet, maybe someone should develop an on screen keyboard with layouts that can be customized for the different languages. I&#x27;ll take one with all of the vital symbols for Python on one layer.<p>Right now I have a tablet that can be used with or without its detachable keyboard. It was given to me, so I have nothing invested in it. Aside from the obvious uses of surfing and note taking, I&#x27;ve got iPython Notebook on it. That&#x27;s become my primary &quot;terminal&quot; for most of my technical work these days, so I can&#x27;t live without it.<p>In all due honesty, I&#x27;ll have to admit that the motivation for having iPython Notebook on a tablet, is to occupy myself during meetings. I&#x27;ve settled on not trying to compose big codes, but use the time to learn more about Python and general programming by surfing the web for cool tutorials and interesting new packages.<p>A tablet seems to be pretty much the biggest thing that I&#x27;m willing to actually carry around. The keyboard has the drawback of requiring me to have a horizontal surface to put it on. My little Moleskine notebook still wins for note taking.
