Seen in Technomarkt today - a tablet about the size of an iPad, slightly smaller perhaps, but probably double the thickness - running full Windows 7.

Also, a fairly small thin light laptop, but instead of a keyboard it had another screen.

Cool! 🙂

i didn't think the touch version of Windows 7 was out yet? If it's the normal version that would likely suck ass (I have to try and use windows based touch systems every day, make you make to through them out the window)

Hmm.. never used.. just thought it was interesting that the HW was out. Perhaps it's in anticipation of a W7 touch version...

All the Android releases are sweets / desserts. ICS has been officially confirmed, but I expect it to get streamlined in a similar manner to Froyo (a portmanteau of 'frozen yoghurt').
