I hope so, but this one has the perfect size screen for reading PDFs. Does anyone know if it's coming to the US?

Since most of the upcoming pads will sport better hardware than the iPad (most will be based on the Cortex A9 architecture, while the iPad's chip is based on Cortex A8), and will be more fully featured (Flash, camera), the real test will be design.

If the cases are well designed (virtually all current netbook designs are butt-ugly cheap things) and if the UI is well thought out, enough people will pay more than $500 for a well-designed, fully-featured tablet.

Time will tell, but I personally am waiting for these Androids with bated breath.
