There's no excitement over a Window 7 tablet. They exist right now. When the Slate is released it will go sit on shelves with all the other ones.

The slate and any other win7 tablets will do better than tablet pcs for just the same reason as an ipad, the form factor suits media consumption and while the slate has flaws so does the ipad. In any case, more variety is good for us as consumers since the competition will force the hardware makers to work harder.
