A tablet to replace a netbook?

I understand that there are quite a lot of posts about choosing a tablet on Habré. But I'm interested in the experience of using a tablet instead of a netbook for work.
At the Lenovo X100e itself, I'm tired of carrying it with me - I want something less.
Main tasks:
- Internet, mail
- work with SSH, RDP
- work with documents - in small quantities
- well, multimedia, respectively
. To recommend for a tablet? I 'm still deciding on the price, but I want it to be cheaper as always :-)
Who will say anything about the Acer Iconia Tab A500, Motorolla XOOM and Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 and 10.1

The Acer A500 itself has recently.
-Internet, mail - copes perfectly well. I personally lack only applications for Yandex.Mail.
-Multimedia - everything is fine, reading both avi and mkv, and streaming flash.
-Working with documents - when connecting a USB keyboard, it is quite convenient to work even with large texts. However, the built-in Documents to Go reads even Excel's own example file a little crookedly. With doc-files, everything is more or less.
-Under SSH, in my opinion, there was only one client, but I haven't looked yet, to be honest, and haven't tried it.
Plus Acer'a - low price, 15 thousand for the 16 GB version. Minus - the lack of necessary accessories - for example, a stand, a cover, or a docking station.

As trite as it sounds, the iPad does a great job of solving these problems. Moreover, version 2 is quite democratic in terms of prices.

All of the above are solved with a bang!, on my samsung galaxy tab, except for the (yet) unresolved problem with ssh.
I can’t find a normal keyboard for Android for the terminal, so that the cursor keys and functional ones work correctly :(

I have my first iPad, but I think I'll give it to my wife, they recently brought me a BlackBerry Playbook - wow, that's exactly what I wanted: there are readers, there are editors, there is a telnet client, you can program under it both on AIR and on the HTML5 SDK, small , lasts longer than the iPad, the screen is bright and pleasant, multitasking by default, the speed is also great.

I haven't tried it myself (due to the lack of a tablet or transformer yet), but android-x86.org with installation on an external sd card, yes.

The key word in the question is "replacing". I've been through a thousand times on these replacements. I change my laptop to a desktop computer, then back, then to a tablet. As a result, I came to the conclusion that nothing and nothing to change will no longer. It is better to go broke and have both a laptop and a tablet at once.

yes, any modern tablet is suitable for such tasks, for example, the novelty of this year (a review of a series of tablets at once) - Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 - as for me, it's an ideal workhorse!
