the ps3 and psp can do it, they call it remote play so as long as you don't run into sony's patents it shouldn't be to hard. =D oh what i'm trying to say 802.11 is plenty fast. :angel:

there are the archos things [popcorn] but i don't think the 9 is out yet, :facepalm: oh it is. [tinfoil] :angel: now then, will it do the job? =)

Windows 7, which is more than I want. Not that I have anything against it, just seems that Apple might just be on to something, as Google are with Android.

Interesting though, because I have read the odd thing that suggests that Android is limited by license to devices 7" and under, presumably to limit overlap between it and Chrome OS. Others say that is nonsense, not interested enough yet to dig for an answer.
I do not like, when with me play, and I think that you also

I like that a lot, but resistive touchscreen = fail for me

The more I read about the ipad, the more I might have to check one out when the 3g ones are out.

^^^^ Just what exactly are the differences between a resistive and a capacative touchscreen?  Is one better than the other for a mobile internet device?

TL;DR: capacative reacts to real human touch (or anthing else that can bridge an electric current)
Resistave are basically pressure sensitive touch screens.  The ipod/ipad/iphone and my current phone, teh Tmobile G1 all have capacitive touch screems.  I think they are 2000% better.
