It's all great news! I love it! I don't know why I was actually scared they'd do something interesting for a minute. I am curious to see if there is any impact on high end smartphone prices. @629 for the wifi+3G model, it's not a whole lot more than...say the Nexus 1, especially considering the 16GB and extra screen real estate (for the people who consider the extra size to be an advantage). But yes, over all, epic fail. No multi tasking, same old walled garden iTunes nonsense to get media on and off the device, no removable battery. I echo a previous post in saying the Notion Ink offering is much more interesting in this space/form factor. It'll sell, not doubt about it, just like the iphone and iPod touch. Anyone see an inkling of how much RAM is involved?
