    "Also, the lack of multitasking (you can't even browse the web and IM chat at the same time) makes this completely non-viable as an alternative to a laptop. It fills a niche that I'm not even sure exists."

    You have a point, but you miss that this device does not target people like you.
    I don't think there are that much people who fell the need of being able to watch a divx, while working on some illustrator file and checking qbn on the interweb in the same time....

    Most criticism made forget the fact this thing will be :
    -a gadget for people who already have a laptop or/anf iphone
    -or a very appealling and easy to use small computer to waste some time.

    When "using a computer" is all about checking facebook (as most people use their computer), why the fuck would you need a real computer which you would not use 99% of its possibilites?
