Will 2010 Be the Year of the Tablet?

"I suspect, for example, the Tapplet - with a streaming device that will connect to your TV - will replace the media center PC and the netbook in the home and the netbook and Kindle on the go"

I don't see why anyone would think a table PC would replace a media PC. The two are totally different kinds of hardware devices.
One is ultra mobile, with a built in screen and keyboard.
The other does not move, it always attached to your TV where you don't want to have to disconnect it. It does not have a keyboard but is instead accessed via a remote or wireless keyboard.
Using a table PC as a media PC wastes all its advantages, size, screen, touch screen.

I do not see that there is a killer feature for a tablet PC. The only reason netbooks are popular is how cheap they are. Apple's $700 tablet won't hold much value over a Macbook other than maybe price.

Calling for a Palm - Dell Union

Poor poor article. Several errors:

"In fact, this is the first innovative operating system to be launched since the iPhone."
Incorrect statement. Google's Android can be considered as serious if not more serious a threat to iPhone.

"Apple launches a new iPhone version that does have a keyboard"
Not true. There has been no mention of a physical keyboard on the new iPhone. Its unlikely to happen. If you mean virtual keyboard, the iPhone has always had a virtual keyboard.

The title of this post is "Calling for a Palm - Dell Union", yet the only mention of Dell is the last line, "a Palm-Dell union would change the equation dramatically."

What does it take to write a blog that gets publicized by Yahoo?

This is a great example of horrible journalism.
