Which is my point precisely.
It's not whether it's 4:3 or 16:9 that's important for
web browsing but the actual screen real estate of the particular device.
My gut feeling is that web browsing is the number one use people put their tablets to, and for this it doesn't matter whether the thing is 4:3 or 16:9 as long as it's got enough pixels.
So if watching films is your thing go for widescreen, and if reading is your thing go for 4:3. Except we can't do the latter as yet again the Toshiba Android option has followed the pack. Which is why I think Rock was perfectly justified in posting "Not 4:3".
It would be nice to think that the manufacturers' market research is pointing towards widescreen for multimedia as the majority preference and that at this stage nobody was prepared to go for the minority 'reader' market, if it wasn't for the blindingly obvious fact that the
market leader by far has succeeded with 4:3.
