You're a genius. I'm in. I think we can corner this new market you've just envisioned. We'll leave that old, outdated market of thin and light tablets to Apple.
I’d anticipate an android with an identical size and weight as the ipad, costing less, and doing a little more, a lighter thinner android doing the same as the ipad, and a heavier, thicker android that completely rules performance wise. I think the android will be strong in a 3 arbitrary categories, but the one that I’m personally looking most closely at is the
super performance version - the portable desktop replacement with the touch screen which might be twice as thick as the ipad, but is a real computer. And that would be a great tablet. If its got a 7 inch screen and is twice as thick as the ipad, it’s going to be more portable than the ipad. Thick is ok. Can I put it in a big jacket pocket? Most of the pockets in my jackets, and all of my clothes really, can fit a 1 inch thick device in them if they can fit a 1/2 inch device. The problem with pockets is when you have device with a 10 inch screen. You can keep making that device thinner and thinner and you still aren’t going to fit that thing in your pocket. I just don’t get the obsession with thinness. It doesn’t offer any additional functionality that I can see.
