Have you really noted how thin and lightweight the iPad 2 is? Including that tablet in a person's travel items is not that big a deal. Additionally, it doesn't need to go thru the same airport screening process as a laptop does.
But consider this. Just being "Applecentric" and using that companies products for this example, a person who uses an iPhone 4S, an 11" MacBook Air and an iPad 2 would not need to worry about a travel "weight penalty". Additionally, and in the presence of a WiFi signal (either thru a free access point or from the iPhone 4S tethering option), the iPad can act as a secondary monitor for the MBA in a dual monitor setup. (There is an app to do that. Grin) That's a pretty cool road warrior setup ability to have.
Now, in your case, substitute an "Ultrabook" for an MBA and either a WP7 or Android smartphone and the above examples will still hold true.
