See http://wiki.contextgarden.net/TABLE
and
http://tex.stackexchange.com/search?q=user%3A323+[tables]
for examples.

No. \placetable is a float mechanism, which can float any \hbox. For
example, you can use:
\placetable[..][..]{...}{\hbox{Hello world}}
table, tables, tabulate, linetable, TABLE, xtable, are different wrappers
around \halign for creating tables. See
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Tables_Overview
for a partial comparison.
