    one big complaint about the tablet is the viewing angle, i say its a plus if you want privacy :p. do you really want strangers or co workers over looking your shoulders?

    that politician in Indonesian resign cause someone caught him watching porno on some other tablet.

    Eh, if I'm going to get a device like this, I'd rather it be an e-ink screen like the Nook - I'd use it for mostly reading, and would want it as fatigue-free as possible.

    I agree, tablets are poorly suited for the clarity one might require to enjoy porn.

    Smart phones are even worse.

    I think the desktop will continue to have a loyal customer base, because it free from these constraints.

    I like the nook but this for hacking purposes this is much better, you now can overclock it to 1.4 ghz(safely). this unlike the nook you don't need to worry about bricking it when fooling around with software, if you do brick its normally softbrick.

    Also its almost the same price as the nook :p with better hardware to play around with.

    this is not bad for looking at porn lol, i'm talking about viewing angles. some dudes where complaining that they can't share movies with their gf standing next to them, you have to have the screen at a certain angle. unlike the politician who was enjoying porn on screen that you can see from all angles.
