Trust me, Asus and Acer will soon be making cheap tablets and making a profit on them. The hardware may not "feel" as solid (or have as much battery life) but it will perform better and have a better OS and that is all the "average" consumer will care about when it's priced at 50% of an iPad.

oh and "speculation" from Dvorak usually ends up as fact.
Are you really touting Dvorak as a sage on the future of the tablet market?* Choice quotes:

"First of all there is no stylus. And while that is fine for the iPod Touch, people expect to be able to draw on a pad computer in high resolution"

"Give it a handle. Why not?"

*Granted, he had a ton of company misreading the iPad.
