I know, but had to tweak you. We have fun don't we?

You are definitely right about the trade-offs and compromises. I really don't expect color e-ink to work out....I think the newer or different technologies will bypass it. OLEDs and other stuff.

Main thing I want is the tablet format that works wirelessly and is open and compatible with my existing applications, data, etc. And has a reasonable battery life -- 6 to 10 hours...

One can hope, right?

P.S. I love that pinch zoom thing on my iPhone.
