I've always considered tablet PC's as drawing aids, not writing aids.  
You may be better off using the tablet for Gimp and Inkscape (with  
occasional single character entry via an onscreen keyboard app).

See under Applications->Accessories in the default Debian/Gnome menu.

Web browsing could be OK (if you have a good set of bookmarks to  
import) but email on a tablet is, I fear, pushing your luck / patience.
