Look up the Asus EP121, it came out in January. A very thin tablet, coreI5 processor, 4GB RAM. Almost as thin as the Xoom. Weight around 2 pounds. Battery life about 4 1/2 hours of regular computing, 3 hours flash video over WiFi.

Now imagine this with the new Sandybridge processors. Battery life will improve about 1.5 fold. You could build a smaller, 10.1" version weighing only 700 grams or so. A slightly improved interface. We are almost there already.
