No one said anything about Mandy's slow-motion, painstakingly rendered cleavage. No one. Nobody. Nope. Weren't looking at it at all. No sir...

Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7" 16 GB costs about $670, is 0.42 pounds lighter (which is quite noticeable), has 3G and IR capabilities, Super AMOLED screen, 1.4 GHz dual core processor, and is a 2011 announced tablet... is this seriously the best Toshiba can do :(

I enjoyed the 3 prequels for what they really were: a wonderfully, massively visual-effects fueled romp thru the Star Wars universe. I've only been a fan of SW because of said effects (glorious saber battles, and fleet destruction, and more lasers than you can shake a Jar-Jar at), nevermind the Force mysteries and the…

I know right? The Russian kids will want Call of Duty...

Your number 3) can be achieved by an OLPC tablet, and would be cheaper in the long run if this can survive several generations. It's all about price; perhaps a simple eReader would have been better than a tablet (would also be cheaper). But let's see it in action first.

Your 5-year old niece uses Windows to do something that a simpler OS can't do? Why give them complicated software (as their first software) when you can start off on something that introduces them to the device? Then later when they've all passed a basic course on usage (and they will, with flying colours), you can…

Would be better off buying a good solar charger that can power various USB devices instead of this cumbersome thing. I mean, i like the Kindle to read because it's so light! I have a slipcase/sleeve that i store it in when not reading and an attachable Kandle reading light.

I'm already sold on the Lumia 710 :( though i'm curious to see what Windows 8 will bring to the bag (or is that just a tablet/PC OS?). Hopefully Nokia can re-energize my faith in them!

I hope it's Android 3.2. However for simplicity's sake that may not be optimal for schoolkids so i'm betting it's a simpler OS (if that's what Sugar is).

Airships are considered one of the hallmarks of a steampunk universe where the technology and experience exist to allow for manageable flying leviathans, instead of the airborne disasters that they were associated with during the 1930s-40s period.

I don't think anyone's claimed that Apple invented this or that, or that even Apple is claiming they own everything, but the constant stream of lawsuits over patents, and designs, and even Jobs' "likeliness" is making Apple thoroughly unpopular. Alas, the discontent with Apple is merely a fly to be swatted down by…

Erm, are you referring to the XYBoard Android tablet? Or all Android tablets in general? In fact i gather from the comment about "What else do you do with ?" that you're not a fan of tablets (Apple, Android, Windows, HP and RIM) in general lol

I understand and share your concerns, but i have faith that there will be measures and resources put in place to fix these learning tools should they develop breakdowns and so on. I expect that a tentative rollout will be followed by much observation and feedback from the teachers and students about flaws and…

Damn me. I'm sold :D

That's no controller... it's a space station.

Ride of the Bumblebees?
