I'd be interested in one depending on the storage... be easier to carry on the bike than a laptop, and I could transfer my photo's to it... then to a external HD if needed...

The 10" one would prolly be better, but I def see a need fora keyboard, I can type on a soft keyboard, but its not exact or quick enough for me. The 32 sd card ability is nice though

yeah gave up on it after the rally last year (at two).


but I gotta figure out what I want to do... do I want something to just store my photos and brows the internet? or do I want something that I can use lightroom on...

I did find that they now have 80gig Solid State drives for laptops on sale at best buy... I think when I see over 100gig I'll pick up a couple... one for the laptop... the other to throw in a usb drive...

I wasn't about the iPad at first. Thought it was dumb, etc. I messed around with one a little. I can see the use. Same for this. Now, if this sucker plays flash, I'm in. These tablets have their place.

I dunno, a netbook with a fold over keyboard and touch screen really looks more appealing to me, would be much happier if I could get one that had decent amount of memory though.
