Currently not much, but my hope is this will complement a smartphone better than a netbook can be.
A smartphone is great for getting quick emails, web browsing and time killing. Though a smart phone fails at taking it to the next level, deeper details, more options, etc. Not saying the iPad has achieved this, but I think it can be a proper step towards what I personally want.

My list:
~Good magazine, newspaper device (eReader was at the top but extremely limited)
~Better email support, richer environment
~Google Voice - currently with anything apple I will have to use the web interface or jailbreak the device
~Remote desktop functionality
~Video streaming (Netflix, Hulu, etc.)
~Video out
~Not 4:3 ratio screen (16:9 would be better)

I have more but you get the idea. I am not looking for a larger iPhone, but a table that is an extension of my desktop & phone. Archos almost had what I wanted at one point but they scrapped it and are starting over with Android, which I think will be better in the end as Google will be supporting the OS and Archos can focus on hardware.
