The recent security exploit should slow it down to only about 500,000 sold per day.

1.5hr battery life... nice.

I think there were something like 30 tablet computers/iPad competitors announced at Computex last week. The Android tablets will probably eventually provide the best competition much like Android phones have caught up with the iPhone.

If "Shenzhen Dragon Brother Industrial" isn't a band name, I just don't know what is ...

seriously though.. My Acer Timeline laptop with Win7 gets about 9hrs on a charge.
The real prob with that machine is Atom processor + too small battery.

Lol yeah it's a lousy name! Personally I wouldn't bother with any of the knockoffs. I've owned a chiphone and other rip off devices in the past. Generally, they suck and you end up with the real thing eventually anyway!

Why not just get an IMac? Whats the need for all these 'tools' that perform to a lesser extent than a laptop?

I would seriously consider getting one. Maybe they'd have a 2 for 1 deal so my mom and I could both get one...(yeah right...)
