I think this may be due to it's rumored afforadable price of $550 with keyboard and $400 without (Prices are not yet confirmed US pricing). but with AmazonUK showing the Asus at a very affordable 429 pounds for tablet with keyboard and 379 pounds without, it seems the US pricing rumor should be right. Plus Asus marketing the laptop feature/keyboard with the tablet as one device is a very smart move that I think has peaked many, including myself, interest.

glad to see the Xoom holding strong.

Other so far is your leader I'm guessing its a combo of many from the Nook color, htc, Sony's, LG and maybe some other lower end tablets.

The one that is shocking to me so far is the lack of love for the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Tab (honeycomb) which will be just as featured rich as the xoom and Asus but also coming in as the thinnest, and even thinner than the iPad 2.
I have a watchful eye on that one as well, if they throw in a Super AmoLED screen on this, this would be very tough to pass up. I'm surprised this hasn't generated that much buzz around this forum.
I say you redo the Poll and include all the tablets, present and forth coming.

Ya, SAMOLED is just not going to happen at least this year. For me the device that really holds the most interest is the LG G Slate. While it will have similar hardware as the others, the BUS design makes it a faster tablet than the others. The LG Optimus phone has the same design and is already showing superior performance over other phones with the same specs.

I'm just waiting to see what their screen quality and price is.

As for samsung, I'm not surprised. Samsung makes excellent hardware but their support, if you want to call it that, is lacking.

Personally I'm really waiting for something like the LG G Slate with a 7" screen, right now very happy with my CM7 nookCOLOR and will not buy a device with a larger screen size.
