I'm watching the show to see how things shake out, but in the meantime, I'm very much enjoying my $250 Nook Color with free unlimited data.  |
Even though I would be more than happy with lower prices like you, I will have to disagree.
Tablets are not netbooks, not in a technical way. You do not have 3G access with a Netbook. However, what I can see and maybe predict, is that PC companoes will change the way they do business and integrate cellphone characteristics on their products soon, like 3G or 4G access. Or, tablet products will kill and alter the netbook/laptop paradigm for ever and people will stop buying netbooks and start buying tablets.
