"Editing your photos on an iPad instead of a conventional laptop also means you can carry one device fewer on your travels. Although most applications on the iPad will shrink the size and therefore the quality of your images when you import them, there are apps that can deal with full-size images. You can even connect wirelessly to printers intended to work with the iPad."

Interesting indeed.
But, can Photosmith actually work with DNG files? And output JPEG's?

Photosmith is not really an image processing app. It's an annotation/sorting/ranking app designed to integrate with Lightroom on the desktop. It works with DNG and JPEG files ... usually extracts the preview JPEG out of the DNG if I recall correctly.
I don't find I use it much. I process raw files on the iPad with PhotoRAW (excellent job) and process JPEGs with Snapseed and Photogene. And tons of other apps as well, from time to time.
The iPad is not a great environment for processing raw files due to the memory and processor constraints. But its produced some excellent work for me anyway ... EG:
These have printed to lovely photos, 13" wide on paper.

I imagine as tablets become more robust they will become even better tools for on the fly editing...

iPads can be handy tools. You can use one with an EyeFi card to view immediate results on a larger screen or do some light editing. The only downside is: you'll need an adapter to fit the cards.
I actually use mine for analog photography as well. To view and sort slides, believe it or not. There's even a special little app that lets you set the temperature of the screen to your desired kelvin reading
Works great on the retina screen, where you don't really see the pixels.

Is there a way to do a quick process of the jpegs and then pass the raws into Lightroom when you get home and not create an organizational nightmare?
Would be cool to process and post to the web from the iPad but wouldn't want to get home and create more work for myself in Lightroom where I want to have a master catalog and little duplication.

I've been using mine as my primary tool for editing X100 Jpegs over the last few months. I have, however, recently bought Lightroom for my laptop for a bit more flexibility. Love the fact that I can sit and edit photos anywhere with this combination. This is an example of an iPad edited X100 image:

In a word, no. However there is an app that allows you to view all the photos on the iPad in a colour calibrated gallery. I think it's called SpyderGallery.
