Tablet PC all the way.

i think it depends actually. see I had a tablet pc in my vip booth at where I'd go to watch NHL games and all and to be honest they can be a pain in the butt. You have to keep them really clean and like everytime I tried to click in an exact location to close a window on the computer it would click like somewhere accross the screen. to be honest also though I wouldn't get a ps3 because even thought there supposed to big a big deal and everything (like all playstation products have been) my bet is there gonna be really slow and a dissappointment. Also considering game availibility with the ps3 compared to with the xbox there is no comparison. xbox now has all the grand theft auto games for it (well at least all the most recent ones) and it also has games like halo that you can't get if you get a ps3, and don't even get me started on how fast it is. When it comes to gaming trust me the only route to go is an xbox, it leaves the ps3 looking like the arcade games they made like 50 years ago. If you haven't tried it yet I'd try playing an xbox and if that's not enough 1)you can store music on it [and movies soon is what I hear] 2) You have the option open for the largest best online game play in the world (xbox live), and trust me if you haven't played on xbox live before you need to try it because honestly if it just came with xbox live i'd probably buy it. But of course that's games and computers have more capibilitys of course so I'd probably reccomend a laptop.
wow, using the tab key would probably help... lol 
i can see why you would make a choice between a tablet and a laptop... but the ps3 doesn't really fit in... not portable or pc-ish (though hopefully sony will come through and support linux on the ps3, awesome...)

IMHO, I'd go for a notebook. I've been using one for 6 months and I can say it's fantastic.
I'd suggest you a Turion 64-based notebook with AT LEAST 512MB of RAM.
Bye!

hmm that is a hard choice,
i think that i will go for a tablet pc.
only because they are just basically a computer and im not much into console gaming.
also i would not get a laptop because they are sometimes verrrrry slow

1) A Tablet PC
pc can do many thing ...
but is not easy for move....

I'd DEFINITELY choose the tablet PC. I mean, it's so useful, it can be moved around so easily, and you jot down notes on it so quickly! AND you can flip the screen around however you like to make it easier for you! It's so too awesome -hugs tablet pc- lol But I guess I'm a little biased... I like to draw CG on my computer, so a tablet pc is a godsend. It's the most useful thing ever! 
I would also definatly buy the Tablet pc
Unless you are really really going to use that touch screen feature alot, then a laptop is considerably cheaper. I've used laptops and borrowed a friends tablet for a few days and I didn't really use the tablet exclusive features enoguh for ti to be worth the 200 or so dollars difference in price I noticed between the equivalent tablet and laptop styles.
Since either one will play movies music and many games and surf the net, I'd think the PS3 would be the least practical of the three. Depends on exactly what you'd use the device for which is right for you. Obviously if you only want to play games, then the PS3 might be in the running, but otherwise, I don't see it as being useful for anything that a computer wouldn't do more effectively.
But I've tried tablets and laptops and I find that for my use as a student, the tablet isn't worth the extra money. Ideally you should try to play with a tablet and a laptop in ways that reflect how you'd be using them most often before you decide. It's so tempting to want the niftiest new gadget but sometimes, they don't do the job any better and it can be wiser to go with the more traditional version.
Your Mileage Will Vary.

when you get A Tablet PC u gonna need laptop.
My vote goes to PC and PlayStation 3...I heard that the graphic is going to beat the X-box 360, I personaly do not like X-box, but the graphic on it looks amazing. I have Playstation 2 and play Metal Gear Solid 3 - Snake Eater, and the graphic rules! Cant wait to PS3 comes out with Metal Gear Solid 4! I saw the trailer on it and its sooo good! But PC is the best....
Personally, I'd buy the PS3.
But am on a Microsoft boycott and have only ever bought Playstations anyway as opposed to xbox/Gamecube etc.

Tablet PC if I were to choose, as a Tablet PC is basically a laptop that folds around where you can draw on the screen and such. I'm not into games (the newest gaming system that I own is the first PlayStation, which I never use any more) so that's just my opinion. 
Just be aware that a Tablet PC will cost significantly more than a regular notebook would.

My vote is for a laptop. They're portable and convienent. I am very happy with mine.
