I find Linux on a tablet to be rather amusing and sexy. I hope to see more of this in the future as well as in other people’s homes.

I want a tablet running ubuntu. Its cool running ubuntu!

what does the M$ logo do on the button on the right ?

Ubuntu Linux is a good choice, much better than Android. However, if that screen showing the lack of an mp3 plugin is a clue, this tablet will crash ‘n burn for the mainstream user. While Linux purists may demand a pristine, open-source environment, the reality is that these third-party plugins are necessary for the tablet to work properly with the content most mainstream users will drop into it. Find a way to get QuickTime (or its equal) into this tablet and, given a competitive price (when compared to the iPad), it will succeed. However, deliver it to users in a pure, opens-source, friendly-to-geeks-only manner, and you’ve got yet another niche product that will go down in flames. Perhaps Mark Shuttleworth will grow a pair and give us a mini-Steve Jobs.

I was looking for a new netbook for work to install ubuntu on, now I think I am going to wait for this!! Brilliant!

Well that was six months ago. But we’ve still not seen hide nor hair of it!

When is this tablet actually going to be available?
