Interesting. I agree with most but the following; - iSlate is not going to take over from the Kindle. Kindle has had several years' head start and they seem to have gotten it right from both the device perspective, the marketing perspective, the price perspective and deals with publishers - iPad is not going to take over anything. The Play Station, the Wii and the XBox already have too much traction - Let's be real. In no way shape or form can Windows 7 be considered a failure. I was thinking if they made the iSlate (or whatever it will be called) and put in Snow Leopard with touch support instead of the iPhone OS that would be a killer device!
