do thses guys honestly believe this 250$ android tablet will sell when you can get the 4th gen ipod touch with A4 1ghz cpu with hd video recording for 229$? seriously? Linux or not, accroding to specs and apps, Itouch> froyo tablets costing more with lower specs.

I have been following the news of the Archos Tablets for a while.
This is the thread,
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=61721
The Archos 43 is on preorder at Amazon for $250. which is 4.3 inches. Everything smaller than that will be too small IMHO. The 3.2-inch is already for sale at Amazon.
BTW, is your N900 a HK version? I don't have one, but I will go back to HK in 2 weeks and hopefully buy a used one if it is cheap over there but it has to be a chinese version.

Hey guys remember the Advent Vega?
Its a pretty hi-end tablet, and there's some new info/video on it.
http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/17/a...t-might-get-it
Anyone notice that he said during 3:20 - 3:35, that the screen is above 720p but not 1080p. This implies 1366 x 768 (which I pray it has for me to buy it in a heartbeat).
Well hold on a sec, wasn't the tablet specced (or leaked) to come with 1024 x 600? And it makes sense for 600p because that is the highest resolution Froyo supports (according to Google), and this is to increase to 720p (or 1366x768) with Gingerbread.
If you think this is a non-issue, I tell you it is because its a difference of been able to watch/stream HD videos or television and also not needing to resize media. It also means much smoother graphics experience (157PPI vs 119PPI, higher is better) instead of "clunky".

should anyone figure out how to replace the battery on the 43, i might buy it, if my n810 became inoperable. i'm not a fan of planned obsolescence, (or however you want to spell that).
