10"=== a size roughly equivalent to netbooks

What aspect ratio do people prefer?
4:3 === squarish so it is evenly balanced, easy to hold one-handedly in landscape for extended periods (eg ebooks)
16: 9 == rectangular so movies look great, fits webpages much more comfortably, games (eg 3D/racing) can have the controls tucked in the side in landscape mode for better experience. But its not as evenly balanced and makes it less convenient to hold with one hand in landscape mode for extensive periods.
I'm sorry, man, but having grown up with BBS's for a lot of my younger life--when I see someone drawing a trail of minus signs like that, I keep thinking there's an intent to imply an ASCII art male genital in there somewhere. The whole time I'm reading your comment, it almost reads as if you're trying to imply a relationship with sizes. I'd avoid drawing a trail of ='s like that. heheh

So wrong. So wrong,man.

Wow, it's really coming along! At $400, this could be a killer HC device!
THANK GOD! Finally, someone's doing something for us CDMA people! All these kernals and hacks so far have ALL concentrated on GSM (and I really don't like GSM, myself). More importantly, the CDMA versions (Sprint and Verizon) were the ones MOST harmfully crippled (no bt mouse, no bt keyboard, no cifs, etc.)--so we're the ones that needed it the most. Fantastic!

That Wilson is one antisocial arsehole!
