Since the alternative tablets all run Android or Win7, the WeTab is the only one at the moment that seems acceptable for me. Running on the MeeGo core is a bonus.
It took a week for hackers to put Win7 on it. I suppose it will have a great future in hackers' hands, just like the N900.

MeeGo would have deserved something better IMHO.

I fully agree. Luckily regular people won't associate MeeGo with WeTab. It's not even printed on the box, it's WeTab OS. And MeeGo will look totally different anyway.

My We just arrived and is now charging and updating.

Let's see how good or crappy it really is.
