This "not a PDA" theme is silly and, in my opinion, self-destructive.

It ranks up there with Palm insisting Foleo is "not a laptop."

Product differentiation is a good thing and the emphasis on internet connectivity is smart, but doing so in such a way as to hobble the perception of the device is rather stupid.

If you take "internet tablet" literally, it conjures up images of the “web appliances” that were supposed to be hanging on everyone’s refrigerators by now- a dumbed-down single-purpose device of dubious value.
