It's an internet tablet only in the sense that it's a tablet and does only Internet access ; otherwise it's big, Atom-powered and not that portable : larger than a MID, more a couch-surfing device or a mobile terminal to keep around at home.

The fun thing is that this vaporware device sparks a lot of argument along the lines that nowadays it is justified and worthwhile to have a 300$ device that does only one thing (Internet), even if it is a 12", Atom, Linux device.

Makes me smile when I think of the raging debates held here in the past about the functionality of the NITs being too limited... :-)
