IMO, the interesting thing about this is the gap it fills between smart phones and larger laptops. (I view netbooks as being too close to the full laptops to cover that gap).

It's just small & light enough that you could easily carry it around in a bag/car/etc without noticing the 1.5lbs weight but the screen is still big enough to actually be able to do something interesting with it.

It, or similar devices that follow it, will definitely transition some people away from the traditional standalone computer (especially with the keyboard docking station).
