Looks interesting. Though I can't tell what size it is ? and depends on the pricing. If the table thing was real that would be awesome.

Price is going to be insane. Otherwise it might be a pretty decent device! :/

That's exactly what we need. Another iPad.

Have I mentioned there are starving kids in Africa?

Matters on:
-Price
-How different it is from the Ipad
-What exactly do I need it for? If it actually has unique features (unlike the Ipad) and has relatively good pricing them it's a maybe

i have a feeling when we hit like 50 these tablets are going to be considered "old school" as if they were CD players and kids are gonna be calling us old generations for having them....so i recommend we wait another 50 years and buy the tablet "mini" or like some projection glass'

I love how RIM's stock plummeted as a result of this.
