Will Dell Succeed with New Device? Doubtful

As a consumer (of IT products), I find Dell a much more compelling brand than HP or Acer, but outside of Desktops, Servers, Flat Panel Displays and Network Switches (apparently not doing so well), I have a hard time seeing Dell succeed in this newer category of Mobile Internet Devices. Dell has improved their distribution and they've always been good at ODM products, but this new category has a reliance upon innovative new GUIs and Dell has virtually no [successful] experience in that realm.
