Interesting. what are the basic specs? Is it a harddrive like the air?
Basic specs are a 9.7" screen, 1Ghz Apple A4 processor, 16GB Flash memory standard but up to 64GB. 3G available 30 days after initial release. 802.11n wifi, Bluetooth, speaker microphone, accelerometer and a compass. 10 hour battery life.

Think of it as an oversized iPhone with a few extras.

Right, but for when you don't have a hotspot, you will need 3G to get internet. Big Grin
I could live just fine without 3G. I could download my Kindle books at home and I the computer for the movies and TV shows anyway.
