lets talk batteries first, dont care if its non replaceable. I have never purchased a new battery for ANY of my electronic devices.(ps is the sony 300/505 line battery replaceable?)
I have had:
Creative
iRiver
HP
Dell
Apple
Sony
Nokia
etc etc
And have Never had to replace a battery in around 15 years, isnt this just something else that for the majority is a non issue? I would suggest that the lack of battery changeability in the one of the worlds most popular phones and MP3 players would lead toward the answer being no.
OS as I said earlier I would be quite happy with a 'closed' OS like the iphone as that would still allow me to do 95% of what I would want to do on a tablet.
It is very hard to come up with something you would like to be able to do with a tablet that you cant do on their closed system, however it would impact on choice and for some of US that is an issue, but for the majority I guess it wont be. Hence why it will be a closed OS.
eg
I want to use firefox to browse the web
Well you cant! however that doesnt stop me browsing the web.
I want to be able to hotmail in thunderbird mail app
Well you cant, but you can get your email in otherways.
etc
There is little to nothing you cant do in the closed OS in terms of end result that you would actually want to do.
