From a summary of a Forrester report

"Instead of serving as a supplement to a desktop or laptop computer, the report said, these burgeoning cloud services will play such an integral role in the connected future that consumers will first choose a service, then the compatible device as the focus shifts from device to personal content storage services. And tablets such as iPad will become the conduit between consumers' digital devices such as smartphones and PC and the cloud-stored content.
"Over the next four years, tablets will gain new sensors, processing power, and better wireless capabilities for connecting with nearby devices," wrote Frank Gillette, principal analyst on Forrester's business technology futures team. "This will enable full voice control and dictation, increased gesture control, more situational context, better accessory integration, and software that anticipates a user’s needs.""
