With all the hype about the UMPC (Origami Project) devices, what happens to the Tablet PC?

I personally never jumped onboard with the Tablet PC crowd because of a few reasons. One of them was the input method, I prefer the touchscreen technology in PDAs much more. Now that the UMPC platform is established, they are moving towards touchscreen.

My question to you is, If the Tablet PC Makers throw out a touchscreen Tablet, would you prefer a Tablet PC or UMPC? Obviously the UMPC is more compact and ultimately more portable, but I think I would jump all over a touchscreen Tablet PC. As soon as one is announced <wink>, I am all over it.
