Yup... but I don't want to "Experience the whole internet" on a tablet.

For me the beauty of a mobile browser has been the lack of ads, frames, pop-ups, and any other manner of annoyance that distracts from the information that is requested.

Now that we have the bandwidth and CPU/GPU horsepower in mobile devices I had been hoping to be seduced by a "new" tablets larger screen and more fluid touch interface.

Being able to move information retrieval from the desktop to the couch was one thing the "old" 770/N800/810 tablets allowed us to do. The clunky interface, still developing browser, and smaller screen were the trade offs.

If the trade off for a "new" tablet is that along with the information I request, the "whole internet" with all the crap it now dispenses is dragged off the desktop and on to my couch... I think I'll pass.
