The companies that will place well in the hybrid/convertable race will have some sort of retractable screen/keyboard connection technology. I don't think the masses generally buy electronic gadgets that they can impale themselves on. But I could be wrong.

I don't know if this qualifies to be Kick A** - not likely

The OS is Linux based as far as anyone knows now. I guess the only selling point of this device is the price - i.e. if they manage to keep it below $200.

No, it has to fold away and be connected. The n810 stand would be what I call kick a*s. It might be an engineering problem that's not easy or cheap to solve for a 10"+ tablet.

It's an older prototype. The other pic that you've posted in post #17 is the actual design. It's getting more expensive because of the metal case.

The kitten doesn't seem to be very happy with the screen size.

Yes, and even the screen size of our tablets is still small, i think, and not only for the kittens (well, ok, i'm a grown up kitty).
A full 5" screen would be better ... like on the HTC X7500 but 800x480 ...
