Time will tell, though. I'm still unsold on the tablet market thanks to Dell's repeated failures with the Inspiron Duo. Maybe when LO hits the Android market...

But they're not trying to do two things at once, they are trying to do two (three) things on the same device
at different times. When it's docked it's a desktop, when it has the KB/cover attached it's a netbook/notebook, and when it's a slate; well it's a slate. MS has the desktop/notebook/netbook roles covered very well; it's only the slate role that is in question. But if Windows Phone is any indication, they're not doing too badly in that arena either.
