I have Motion 1300 for 6+ years now, it has 12" screen and a tablet and it reads and annotates pdfs. I cannot use it, because god damn thing is too big to hold comfortably, but why you don't have it yet?
Is it apple-cool-aid you waiting for?

You just said it, it's too big to hold comfortably. The battery life probably stinks etc.
I want something in the iPad type of form factor/battery life. Printouts work fine in the meantime, so I'm in not rush to get some big, bulky, short battery life, hot running tablet PC.
Especially now since the iPad is out, a bunch of Android tablets are coming out, thinner tablet PCs like the HP slate etc.
Just silly to buy anything right now IMO vs waiting 6-12 months for these to roll out and find something that's closer to what I need/want.
But yes, some Apple kool-aid as the iPad is fantastic in terms of form factor, speed, battery life etc., just a bit small and needs a real file management system. So the bar is set pretty high, and I may just end up with an iPad if the Android and other tablets don't come close to matching it in those areas.
