Although my reasons for a tab are different than yours, I ended up selling my netbook for the Galaxy tab. I don't play facebook games, but I do facebook a lot during the day. I've found that having a tab is more suited for my needs than carrying a laptop or netbook with me everywhere, and for packing on my motorcycle, tossing in the car, whatever. Unlike the netbook, the Galaxy tab is always on, the battery life is great...just unlock and away we go. I love my Evo, but I do need something with the bigger screen and the tab is perfect. Now, I do have some things that need to have Windows to work, so going completely without a laptop (or desktop for some people) is not completely feasible, but for a day to day carry around device, that gives you almost everything you need at your fingertips with plenty of screen view to be completely comfortable the tab works great. I love the 7" size on the Galaxy tab because it's easier to carry and handle, whereas the iPad or even the now 10.1" Galaxy tab is more than I wanted to deal with. Of course, this is my opinion and your experience may differ. I would suggest that you examine exactly what you need on a regular basis, read and ask questions like this one...a lot...and research, research, research until you feel comfortable with your purchase...or non purchase if that's the case.
