After axing just about every tablet you had us drooling over at CES, we demand more actual real products and less unicorns please.

It'd be nice if some real products actually were shown, instead of a constant stream of mockups, tech demonstrations, and prototypes.
Haven't we seen enough unobtanium-based hardware at CES?]]>Jun 1st 2010 7:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/True enough. As much as I do like news about new gadgets, what is the point of them if I can not get my hands on them eventually. ]]>Jun 1st 2010 9:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/Jun 1st 2010 9:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/Jun 1st 2010 10:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/ Unfortunately, responsiveness wasn't this thing's strong suit, and it was fairly obvious that the software wasn't exactly fully baked.

This is where Apple nailed it with the iPad. Competitors really need to step up the chase or they will be left trailing. Specs aren't everything, user experience is paramount.]]>Jun 1st 2010 7:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/
You got it right! For me, the UI and battery life are the real talking points for tablets. not having to plug it in 2 -3 times a day and using the device without feeling exhausted.]]>Jun 1st 2010 7:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/
Where have you been hiding ? So far there were awesome anouncements about slate that make the ipad look like the overpriced gimmick it is.

Just look at the exoslate for starters...

The keyword in your reply is "announcements". Apart from the iPad, anything actually physically released or demoed so far just hasn't lived up to expectations. Big announcements and exciting spec sheets just don't cut it.]]>Jun 1st 2010 9:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/IMHO, i think that even if the product was better than the ipad, it wont do as well as it because it is not Apple. they have a good fan base.]]>Jun 1st 2010 11:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/Jun 1st 2010 7:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/Shame it's not got a bit of oomph to it, as the formfactor (as we're seeing here, the Dell Streak) looks like it'll be popular; smaller than a tablet, bigger than a phone.

and it does look like a bigger iPhone 4G (sans the OS)]]>Jun 1st 2010 7:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/Jun 1st 2010 8:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/Jun 1st 2010 8:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/Jun 1st 2010 9:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/just reading engadget makes my eyes hurt....]]>Jun 1st 2010 9:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/acer-ebook-concept-preview-qualcomm-msm7227-and-android-onboard/Jun 1st 2010 11:19AM
