Of course.
I wasn't knocking your comments really, just stating that it would be harmful to the company if they launched a shoddy product now.
And would be harmful to even you in the long run when there's no 2nd gen model, software updates etc. You'd get to tinker with it sooner, but be left with no future for the device, no options for repair if it breaks etc.
It's always better for companies to take their time. And this will be really true with Tablets as the iPad set that bar pretty damn high. All the bitching about closed systems, etc. aren't stuff the average Joe cares about.
Other tablets are going to be compared to the iPad based on appearance, size, weight, screen quality, how slick the OS and UI are, how well the touch works, getting 10+ hours of battery life etc.
So if any tablet wants to challenge the iPad, it will have to match or surpass those features that are looked at in the mainstream, and offer some tangible benefits over the iPad as well. Rushing something out won't due any of that.
So they need to be sure
