I say the blu-tack, you can seal a lot of things with it!

Shame, 'cos the hardware is very nice. Just the software that's broken.
Hopefully someone will "jailbreak" it and work out how to access the multi-touch interface so it can have open software on. Linux would rock on such a device.

The touch is probably similar to other touch screens, so just a bit of tweaking drivers, though the lack of connections to anything is pretty sucky

Nah, it's multi-touch. There's VERY few multi-touch screens that big around and from what I've seen, none on tablets, let alone an ARM tablet.
ARM CPU == MUCH more processing per watt.

In short, I wants an ARM tablet with multi-touch. I just don't want the shitty iPhone OS on it.
There are some others that have been exhibited, but I've not seen any available to buy and even from those exhibited 1GHz + programmable shader in the GPU is non-existent.

As I said, the hardware is very nice, just a shame about the software.

Apple do love to be draconian about things. Apple's way or no-way.

Don't get me started on the IPad. Actually, I won't get started, I'll just leave it at that.
Audiosurf is like a mix of tetris, need for speed and pot... Look at all the colours, dude!

Well the joke isn't exactly new, just a matter of time until SOMEONE did it.
Still amusing though.
