The devil is in the pricing... at $1899, I doubt it will sell much. To ever challenge PDAs it should not be more than $999.

It looks cool, at the very least, they have upgraded to USB 2.0, now using USB CD drives or hard drives won't be a pain...

Why do these gadgets always says 'up to' xx numbers of hours, in this case, 3 hours. But 'up to' could also mean 1 hour or less... it could have some fineprint saying that 3 hours is with wifi off, screen off, and just playing mp3 or something like that... I guess this won't last an hour or at most hour-and-half of wifi surfing. Hopefully, some one (mobiletechreview?) ould get one and put it to its paces...

Beats the Nokia 770, but with that price, you could maybe buy 5 Nokia 770 with some money to spare.

And the OS is XP Tablet Edition? I think this would be could in 2006 with Vista on it, better battery management of Vista would be great on such a small device, but then again, they would have to at least double the CPU speed for Vista...
