| Don't agree. Let's first see other manufacturers bringing something similar to the market but cheaper. So far it hasn't happened. |

| iPad pricing has never made sense in my humble opinion. It's nothing but a huge iPhone which you can't even use to call someone with (except with Skype of course). A lot of cheaper tablets have been announced lately and it probably won't take too long before the market get flooded with cheap tablets |

I'm curious what the competition will bring to the table. No doubt it'll boast better hardware (or it won't sell at all), but the value will have to be in the software. Windows 7 is not an option tablet wise, you need something in between a "normal" OS and a "phone" (nexus or iphone or windows phone 7) OS. | |

| I think you lost too much sleep lately. You're talking babyspeak already Quote:
OK, I'm with you, but you're dreaming. A full OS will eat way too much resources : never in your life you'll be getting any decent battery life, or if you do, the thing will weight a ton and not be comparable size wise. | |
