We've certainly been expecting a MeeGo tablet (and surely it will be MeeGo, unless Nokia has completely given up on their ability to create software). But the recent release of the iPad does give me opportunity to reflect. Nokia will have their work cut out for them. Apple appears to be poised to make the iPad a compelling media-consumption solution for e-books, video, music, web browsing, and games -- all categories that can catch the consumer's fancy. Can a MeeGo tablet compete on any of those fronts? If not, upon what fronts (besides geekiness )? Still, if they can interface with Amazon, that could go a long way.
