Honest question: once the Macbook reaches the (approximate) weight and convenience of the iPad -- and has touch input -- is there any future for the iPad?

Sure, iPads are more convenient for giving to kids, but a Macbook with a surface-style keyboard and touchscreen kind of moots that entire line.

I see tablets and the requisite limited tablet software/interface as a necessary evil we had to pass through before we could make full-fledged computers small enough to have the same convenience.
