    The super-wide bezel is a little bit ugly.

    I don't care what it's called, I care about what it can (and can't) do. And how much it grows my Apple stock.

    Granted but ergonomics could do with a thinner bezel too, and an aluminum one as well, all that black around, I don't like it.

    hahahahaha...good luck with that after you see the price of this >$500 glorified POS color Kindle.

    That thing is more useless than a girl hygiene tool.



    Netbooks for the win!

    I don't like it. I am sure it will have it's audience, but not for me. No signs of multitasking at the time of this post.

    YouTube and Vimeo both work in Safari without Flash player now.



    Becuase those are the only sites I use on the internet? Really?



    I could see the rational on an iPhone, on a much larger screen like this, the reasoning for not having Flash is just stupid.

    From the look of it, it's all going to come down to cost for me. Looks good, seems pretty well featured, but how much difference between that and a laptop in terms of cost. Much though the form factor is very nice, I'd prefer to work on a laptop.

    10 hours of "best case" battery life is pathetic. It probably won't even last 4-5 hours under heavy use. They should have made it a few ounces heavier to get at least 8 hours of battery life under heavy use, which would translate to 14-16 hours of "best case" battery life...

    I wonder how many cores/threads on that PA Semi chip? Is it an ARM or a PowerPC?

    f. flash. forget about it. It's crap, and html 5 specifications just do away with it. Nobody gives a flying f. about flash anymore, even once flash websites have stopped using it, it's not user friendly, it's a hog on resources, there's a whole list on way flash sucks.
