Geez, blink and you'd miss it. LOL. Ok, there are now tons of Android 2.1 *with* the 1 GHz A8 (aka ZT-180?) now shipping.

I'm still holding out for: built-in camera, "n" wifi not "g", a price for a model with 16 GB not 2 GB, more details on the 3G versions (appears to be a dongle), and the Android App Market extended to non-phone devices.

But, crickey! This market is changing SO quickly.

BTW, a little bird tells me there will be Android tablets from ASUS in stores next week locally. As soon as I actually see one, I'll post more details.
