The main issues is with "some" applications because when you are a developer and you are writing an app. you need to have the ability to sync your product for different screens: resolutions and sizes. But the Operating System itself runs without issues.
Of course, Froyo runs well on the Tab. Not all applications written for 3-5" will look good on the much larger screen. Honeycomb will do a lot more than Froyo, and combined with dual core processors, will give you a lot more power.

Still, the Tab is a nice device, but US$ 300 would be more like it. To each his own I guess. I would advise people who don't "have to have it right now" to wait a few more months. You will get something you can be happier with over several years of usage and OS upgrades. Or you may get the Tab for 250 in May and upgrade yourself.
