Actually I have installed Linux on my device. But a lot of things are quite a chore in Linux (took me and dozens of Linux insiders weeks to figure out just how to get Chinese input working properly in the TouchPad's Linux Chroot). And Linux is just not setup for all Touch Input (even the best windows managers). Starting VPN is a pain (on the TouchPad) and Flash doesn't work and the newspaper reader only worked online, now downloads.

I have a Windows Tablet, which is great for most tasks, but obviously still overweight. For now, there is no perfect tablet for me, of course. But Android could be better, if they just allowed it to be. I actually don't mind the interface, Windows 7 works very well with a Wacom pen.
