Yes, exactly. What often happens to me now is 1) I do something on my tablet...an email comes in, I start to respond, then I get in a little deeper and need to research something for a proper response....then 2) I reach for my laptop to finish off the email, likely involving the task of referencing other documents/web pages, to compose the intelligent reply. Better multi-tasking and quick access to a keyboard on a device improves this common use case scenario.

Also, when I travel, I have to take both a laptop and a tablet. As tablets become a little richer in functionality, I could see less of the need to take both with me.
