Why would they want to rehash the Tablet PC? That's already gone nowhere several times over. I think the point is to specifically try to reposition the Tablet PC as a different class of device.
Then what are they trying to do? That's the problem with this device. It's great to surf on and
maybe read a book (that sounds like torture to me on an LCD), but that's it. Since you don't have drive access, you can't stream videos, you still have an incomplete web experience w/o Flash, and you
still can't multitask. On a device that powerful and big, you should be able to multitask. I can multitask on my Palm Pre. This thing is lost. It has no identity. I can't use it as a computer, I can't use it a phone, (in certain ways) it doesn't even have all the functionality of an iPod Touch or iPhone, so what are they doing here? No USB, no camera, no handwriting support, etc.,
and it's not even widescreen like its iPod Touch/iPhone brethren.
