Har!

I'm not sure I'd buy a) a ZTE tablet or b) a pre-3.0 Android tablet. That doesn't mean for a second that miffed wont, though!

Price should be the key with the Light.

I'm a little concerned at the tablets that are emerging. I think manufacturers are betting on the form factor when it's user experience that's selling iPads.

The competition to the iOS devices has yet to learn all about "the experience". It is quite hard to describe to anyone who hasn't actually experienced it in the whole. There is so much to be said for a closed ecosystem.

I quite like what is happening right now, with the Android 'pads' that are arriving. Particularly the Chinese and others driving down the prices, making the likes of the Samsung Galaxy Pad seem overpriced and excessive. I reckon that these devices will be commodity items this time next year. Excellent.

ARRRRRGGGHH !!!! JUST TYPED OUT A LENGTHY REPLY THEN LOST IT :(


EDITED HIGHLIGHTS ?

Looks great , but I reckon Apple will be the winner - The iPad clones will generate interest in tablets , people will buy these clones , clock onto the concept , then eventually buy iPads ! (pretty much what has happened with the iPhone & Android IMO )

This one is coming to DSGi in a week or so at £249 , Looks well specced and *may* have a 3G slot , depending on who you believe

I like the idea of a tablet using the Tegra platform... Hopefully they'll put one out on display so I can have a fiddle :)
