This would allow you to leave the tablet at home and still have a mobile phone with you.

Besides that I agree, this is a very cool concept, only I would have thought it would work better if the mobilephone-come-keyboard contained the phone bits and the tablet tethered to it via a physical connection or bluetooth.
