My friend is 70 and very much involved in making a living by freelancing on the fly with businesses that he finds along the way. From what I can tell, he presents a few ideas and does some “promotional ideas in sketches and goes on from there with designs for both inside and outside the stores or restaurants.
My feeling is that he could do some exciting things on the spot with a tablet i.e. do a rough sketch and add color and text that would look far more finished than he can do with just a pad.
He had trouble getting into using a PC, but as many of us have learned, it's a lot easier to learn the basics on a Mac.
A tablet could be a really great tool for his method of drumming up business, so I hope that Apple does bring one to the marketplace.
