It's not terrible, though. In my experience so far, access to anything worth running that isn't a pack-in is more of a barrier than the horsepower. I've snuck some off-market apps onto my eDGe and seen no speed issue. Although that will certainly change as tablets come out with NVidia graphics cores and PC-grade CPUs.

My running around with a tablet has convinced at least one co-worker in my office to get a tablet, although he chose a Nook Color and hacked the latest Android onto it. He has, at least, been highly curious to learn and remember the maker of my tablet, so I may be winning him over. More software and/or re-enabled rootability would definitely help the device for someone like him, though.

I'd definitely rather believe Entourage is right-sizing than dying, but I'm still glad my backup battery arrived and everything else with the device looks stable.
