It is, yeah. That would be nice.

$399 for a solid 10" Amazon backed Android tablet could be interesting, with a cheaper 7" to compete with the Nook Colour and draw in that price sensitive segment of the market. Anyway I guess we will find out soon enough if all the rumours hold up.

Alternatively I'd love to see them do something novel like have a pen input option ala HTC Flyer (http://www.htc.com/www/tablets/htc-flyer/). Natural mark-up/notation for eText could be a selling point for the education market. Free form note taking/drawing would also be nice.
