I don’t detect any anti-apple zealotry in the article. I assume that the headline was written by a different person from the article, because there’s no real relation between the two.

I agree with most of the points. None of the tablets announced so far is likely to be an iPad killer. Let’s get real. The iProducts have had more alleged killers than JFK. It’s the Archos shooting from a storm grate! The Zune in the book depository! The Palm Pre on the grassy knoll!

This author gets that Apple gets it where human interfaces are concerned, and almost no one else does. I also think he’s right that the toughest competitor looming is going to be Palm’s WebOS with HP’s resources backing it.
