not in my book.
Discussions when entering secured area (leave it with most mobile phones which also sports a cam?)
Unsafe code allowing outsiders to access the cam unwanted (I sometimes follow Charles dress rules for coding @home)

YOu might skip it - AFAIK coming Win8 needs higher screen resolution for the parallell multi-tasking view.
While Samsung Note fits into that screen size (while having better pixel count),
for me it is ridiculous as a phone - A cheap pure mobile phone brick is still allowed in secure areas,
is easy to carry and needs to be leashed to the wall outlet only 3 times pes month ;-)

I am happy using a Lenovo Ideapad A1 for couch surfing and taking notes
(no Fire nor Nook in the old world) and will perhaps upgrade to the Google Tab if specs are as good as hinted at
(1280*800 in 7', quad core with 1GB real RAM, ICS or newer).
