So what will they cut to make it cheaper. I'm looking forward to seeing more about it. If its a pure android device & cheap then I'd probably snap it up pretty quick.








Hey look at that. I posted a thread where it belongs.

Hoping they at least keep the 1280x800 display and SD card slot.

They don't have to cut anything. For what I read, the Tegra 3 chip will drop in price after Q2 and that will allow them to meet their target price.

Quote:
Google would have had trouble hitting a $249 price point if the device was released in May, as costs of internal components such as Nvidia’s Tegra 3 SoC and DDR2 memory are expected to drop by mid-year.

Edit: add quote and link.

No card slot = no buy.

Ayup. Same here. I can't say that I could enjoy a tablet without an SD slot, even if the price is right.

Agreed. I wouldn't buy a tablet without a card slot at any price, except perhaps as a present for someone else.
