Although, it seems like games would be limited to touch screen controls. Looks very slick to me. Although, it seems like games would be limited to touch screen controls.

They took the "slate" form factor too literally - it's just a big freakin' rectangle (looks like almost sharp 90" corners even). I was hoping the 7" version would have a keyboard... like a convertible tablet netbook built around android. I would have bought that. @robert barrett -- the comparison to the iPod Touch and iPhone is that, like the iPod Touch is a phone-less iPhone, this is a phone-less Android tablet. It's an appropriate comparison, no matter what you feel about the relative merits of the OSes might be. I'm kinda disappointed by the GiiNii Maxx (7" version).

The best next thing is the PRE. Now that's a baby I would adopt anyday just if TMobile would get it. I believe this new OS may be Androids biggest threat and the way the G1 owners are being treated with the cupcake situation, good riddance! No way is this anywhere close to IPhone.
