Not quite the 10" we were hoping for, but not bad at 8.9" biggrin.gif No word on a resolution boost though...

Hopefully that's just in the pre-production models... if not then i'll probably stick with the smaller screen... *fingers crossed*

With the issues keeping up with demand even now I'm starting to think that it's more likely an end of the year release... if that happens I'll buy one of the current ones and then maybe hand it to my fiance when the new ones are released.

*damn my impatience* smile.gif

1024*768... that's all it needs... enough to view 95% of websites without a scroll bar appearing.
