Open Ballot: will you be buying a tablet in 2011?

TuxRadar

Happy new year! As we prepare to kick-off a new series of the TuxRadar Podcast, we want your musings for the Open Ballot section. For episode 1 we're asking: will you be buying one of those new-fangled tablet computers (or "media consumption devices") this year? Maybe the shiny videos of Android 3 have whetted your appetite, or perhaps you'd rather have a full-on Linux installation with all the Gnome/KDE bells and whistles. Alternatively, you could be getting tempted by Apple's famed Reality Distortion Field, or you just think that tablets are a silly fad that will go away soon.

Whatever the case, we want to know! Leave your comment here and we'll read out the best/funniest/most rhyming comments in the podcast. And please, for the love of Tux, give yourself a more interesting name than Anonymous Penguin...

Paracetamol, yes, table PC, no - I already have plenty of 'proper' machines.

Steve Jobs, sheep et. Al can keep their 'tablets', 'apps' and other such nonsense.

yes but................

I travel a lot for work and keep my business up to speed on the road with my Eee running Mint. Have done for a while now but I want to trade to a pad because........
I don't want to have to open the lid! everytime i use my machine.
I want to be freeee with 3G onboard (god these manufacturers are way behind in the business field)
I want the touchscreen like my touchscreen smartphone

Give me the features and a mature Os and you've got my money
