Tablets are much better than phones at trying to do things that are meant to be done in a full computer, while being much more more portable than computers. It'll never be as good as PCs but to some people that's not a big price to pay for the portability.

    I think people like tablets a lot more than virtual desktops judging by the sales numbers.

    True. But more so you need companies to get into it. They are the ones buying. Plus you would computer-literate staff to get a router with the capability to run a secure VPN. I don't even know if it's possible. I don't see why not. But maybe bandwidth isn't capable
