  I've only just heard about this -> coming out at the end of the month. Looks like it'll run a version of Linux .. it's a proper computer. Maybe better than an iPad?

  If it runs Linux, it's probably ten times more stable. Is it cheaper?

  • $500– lukus_W1/2

    More stable than the iPad? Ha!– monospaced2/2

  Interesting - if only because the underlying componentry of this class of device means that there is the potential for lots of manufacturers to enter the fray.

  Computers are going boutique?

  • I reckon eventually, the tablet we all want will be produced .. maybe in 12 months time.– lukus_W1/3

    Here's hoping!– detritus2/3

    Yes this thingy that i can draw with, and for less than 500€– OBBTKN3/3

  I always wanted to turn one of those LCD photo frames into a GrannyCam™. The idea would be that you buy two devices .. and you'd hang it on the wall - one in family home, other in Granny's home.

  Could be used as a digital photo frame, but the device would also have a camera embedded + one 'call' button - which would allow Granny to link up and stay in contact with the family easily.

  • * buys www.amateurgrannypor…...– GeorgesII1/3

    you could do that.– JazX2/3

    I reckon it could sell .. more useful than a photo frame -> and a simple way to keep family in contact.– lukus_W3/3

  If this could be used as a controller for Cubase running on a laptop - than I WANT. Multitouch control would be so sweet.

  • good for Ableton too maybe .. CD mixing / MP3 mixing ..– lukus_W1/3

  Looks ok. But lack of any sort of 3G connectivity, for me, makes this product doomed from the start. Also 4gb of hard drive space??? Methinks it could do with a little more than that.

  • what is the competition? Ipad, like tablets pc didn't exist before. Ipad is also a fantastic name– GeorgesII

  ^ Either this guy's small, or it's fuckin' huge!

  • I don't like the aspect ratio they've chosen. It's too wide / tall.– lukus_W1/10

    It's so easy a caveman can use it?– discoduro2/10

    but still people bitch about the iPad not being this ratio– monospaced3/10

    Ronaldinho?– OSFA4/10

    One beautiful bastard.– detritus5/10

    The aspect ratio of his head is all wrong.– inv6/10

    doesn't look like there's a great range of viewing angles - looks foggy even at that slight angle.– Not_Just_Another7/10

    so easy a caveman can do it!– utopian8/10

  I've seen a video of it recently and it has serious issues recognizing the finger events, the guy had to do them sometimes up to 3 times until the thing reacted to it
