1) Home Multimedia source (as previously mentioned)
2) cordless long distance phone (Skype) better than sitting at your computer during those excruciating "calls to mom back home"
3) Build a custom mount for it, with power. Making a really cool chair armrest, of nifty kitchen information station, etc... Perhaps build it into the wall in a garage or basement, somewhere you dont already have a computer... could still be plugged into speakers to use as entertainment centre for that area as well...
