    looks like tomorrow is its release date so we should be getting some real user impressions (mostly in German) soon...Hopefully it will get Meego out of the gate with a bang.

    Somewhere over the Atlantic in Germany, the wetab has started shipping. This starts nothing or perhaps something really big.

    There was a convo going on n WeTab on Facebook (in German).
    Only one comment in English summarized it and its not very positive.

    Don't know if its a troll or not.

    Why would the Android store work with a non-android device or am I missing the point here? Thought this was MeeGo device?

    this sums up everything i read about the product during the last weeks. it's bound to fail. (which is a pity because a lot of people will think it's kind of a meego flagship.)

    my personal opinion is that the company behind the wetab never intended to ship a stable product. when you see those people on video, it makes you wonder......

    that tells a lot about engadget. "quality journalism" as always.

    At least it is positive exposure on an OS that is derived from an OS we really like on a site that could influence folks that otherwise wouldn't know about MeeGo.

    multi touch was not intended for wetab. consumers should not have expected this. webtab is not a nokia tablet rather an intel one. it will also run the android app market and thus will not be a competitor which it would have been if nokia made the tablet.

    confusing? hell yes.

    I think he thought it was an Android device hence his confusion.

    It apparently includes Android running as a VM within MeeGo.
