Personally I use a netbook. It runs windows 7 and basically does everything like a laptop except a bit slower and no cd/dvd drive. I picked up one with one of the better processors (for a netbook anyway) so I can do some basic photo-editing. It also has 3 usb ports and an hdmi output. Good for watching movies on the plane too! Everyone wants/needs something different, this is just one option you may consider. At ~$300 I think they can be a bargain. Just don't expect to get a full feature laptop for performance and capability.
