I've some hope in Windows 8 tablets when they come out as well. Price will be key though.

Well, my first impression was that it almost has everything an iPad has but is way cheaper. I'm surprised they can keep the prices so low, so I'm a little speculative when it comes to performance... we'll see about that in upcoming reviews.

This might finally bring up the popularity of tablets... I believe the biggest downer was the price of such devices.

I really don't know how it compares as far as features, but the price is impressive. I'm going to assume that it's more of a fancy kindle than a full fledged tablet PC.

Honestly I think if they intended to enter the tablet PC market they should have marketed it under it's own name. Calling it kindle make you think "e-reader".

I'll be interested to see how things go with it. Again, $199 is impressive considering several months ago the regular Kindle went for ~$180.
