I'm just interested in seeing a slew of 10" or so tablet pcs come out and prices on them get in the $500-700 range as I could really use one for the office for reading and marking up academic documents and articles. Current tablet/slate PCs are way too expensive, and I don't really need a device with full PC functionality.

You're going to want to be watching a couple of companies, one obvious one is
Gigabyte and their convertable tablet netbooks running at $700 for a 10.1" device.
The other is of course
archos and their 9" atom based tablet coming relatively soon too.
I'm more interested in the latter. My purposes for such a device have no requirement of an attached keyboard at all. A wireless or onscreen keyboard is more than fine. Perhaps this is the kind of thing you're waiting for. If so, not much more waiting will be required.
