I seem to remember the iPad being nailed because by the spec sheet it didn't have a cf or sd expansion slot. According to many technically accomlished reviewers this was a major shortcoming. Millions of people decided it was no big deal and bought the device anyway. This was not a problem of the spec but of the assumptions made based on the specs.

Yes and no. Of course Apple would have sold even more units if they had included this. Then again with sideloaded content and more people opting for the 16GB versions they would have made less profit. And the really interesting question is how many ipad buyers would prefer to have an expansion slot (all other things being equal) but bought an ipad anyway? Just because somebody did buy an Ipad in the end doesn't mean they don't care. Just not enough to keep them from buying.
Anyway, I want to know the detailed specs and then make my decision.
