It seems to me that all 3 of those sites have slightly varying specs, probably just translations errors?

Also they all seem to indicate that the charger output is 9V. Not a big deal, but don't most of the other tablets take 5v (ie USB). If you're just going to use it at home probably not an issue. If you're planning on using it on the go, that may be an issue (as far as recharging).

It also appears to weigh 1.2kg (2.6lbs)?

Tablets are a new product category and still in its infancy. So far they are aimed at becoming netbook replacements; usually maximizing content consumption but some have content creation ability. After some searching, here are the tablets worth considering:

$99 Web Special - ZTE V9 Optus (7" WVGA resistive touch, 600MHz cpu, 3,400mAh, CMod7, Telephone+3G)
$165 - The Superpad2 (the current craplet king)
$200 - Nook Colour (lots of love at xda)
$300 - Original 7" Samsung Galaxy Tab (bang for buck)
$300 - Advent Vega/Viewsonic G-tablet (was my favourite)
$400 - Malata Zpad/Woow! The One (predates iPad2)
$400 - ASUS Transformer (now favourite) + $150 LaptopDock
$490 - New Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 (brilliant)
$500 - New Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (great)
$500 - RIM Playbook (many strengths and many disadvantages)
$500 - Apple iPad (needs no introduction)
$600 - iPad 2 (double the capability of the original)
$650 - Exo-PC (mediocre tablet, but has good touch-software)
$800 - HP Slate 500 (best x86 with 2 major flaws= small battery and no touch software)

We will see:
-LG G-slate (8.9" perfect size, 3D cameras)
-Lenovo IdeaPad K1 (consumer aimed, average features, 3D front and rear cameras)
-Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet (corporate aimed, native pen-support, leather keyboard case and trackpoint, USB-host)

edit: July '11 Update!!!!
