Nice. I’ve kind of lost my Linux enthusiasm of late, but I still read up on some of it.
I bought my wife an Ipad 1 last year, and I bought a Samsung tab for me a couple of months ago. The iPad 10” screen is so worth it. The Samsung only has 7” of real estate, and I find it difficult to type. I like both. If I had to choose, I’d probably stay with the iPad, but the lack of flash bugs the heck out of my wife. Maybe the Samsung in 10” would be the best of both worlds. But I have zero intention of screwing around with it, rooting and stuff. If it doesn’t work out of the box, I get impatient and leave it lying around, unused.

Try thumb keyboard. It splits the keyboard and you use your thumbs.Works pretty good.
Interesting. My wife already has an Ipad, but she has taken over my 7” Galaxy Tab after buying me a 10.1 for Christmas. I’ve got a feeling that we’re going to have an Ipad on ebay before too long.
The screen is way better on the 10.1 tablet than the Ipad IMHO. The 16:9 widescreen format is simply more media friendly than the 4:3 Ipad screen. Running say Netflix, by the time the movie is letterboxed on the Ipad, it’s not much bigger than on your 7” tablet. It looks downright dinky next to my newer, larger tablet.
