     @robbychen Take a look at Archos 5 Internet Tablet, Asus T91mt Eee PC, HP Slate and Toshiba Portege M780-S7220.

     @magicfab I searched around online. It seems that I have to wait at least two months. Unfortunately, I already ordered one:(

     @robbychen You could also check out the Enso zenPad http://www.enso-now.com/

     @robbychen Looked into touchbook. Seems to be problems (check out their forums). Also, noticeably absent is handwriting recognition.

     @lowell I think it uses Open Hardware. It's useful for the hardware hackers. I think I will buy a ZenPad. Thanks for pointing out.

     @robbychen np. I will probably buy a touchpad but I'm going to wait. I do like the whole concept, though,
