The camera. Really convenient having one to take picture and post ads. Dropbox is an alternative but still requires two devices.

The GPS. You can get navigon, which is pretty good, with offline maps... no need for data.

Not all tablets have GPS. The Nook, for example, does not. Generally speaking, if the tablet doesn't support cellular data, no gps.

And yeah, I have about 25 cameras handy at any time already. Including the one on my laptop...

Anyone else?

My "wife's" Nook Color does about everything a laptop can do, I think. It does flash video, netflix, teamviewer/gmote remote pc support, orb, gaming!
