I love the looks (sorry, MoeJoe, I'm female). I like the accelerometer - this is the first tablet demo I've seen where they actually made use of portrait mode. I like the looks of the iBooks app/store. Prices, not so much, and I want to know how easy it is to import books that you already have. I'm also anxious to see what sort of DRM is going to be on those ePub files. The battery life sounds pretty good to me, too.

I'm disappointed that no price or availability date seems to have been announced (unless I missed that somewhere?).

In short: It's a cool device. But I don't think it's for me.
No Flash support isn't confirmed. One website required a plug-in but NatGeo had something that could possibly have been Flash.
