You do realize those are 2010 specs, don't you? It seems like RIM is one generation behind. By September dual core phones will be common place and a 1.2 Ghz phone will be considered mid-end. Isn't this obvious for everyone?

The fast LTE speeds are useless without fast page rendering as well. Take a look at this example of Playbook (dual core) vs iPad (single core) browing to see why:

Meh. Wake up me up they allow Internet calls through Wi-Fi. Most Android users will not use this feature, especially internationally.

It is me or does it look like a 4.3" phone?

WTF CIA?!

@dnadeau13: Imagine you're touching the screens with your other hand then. I think it can drop form your hand pretty quickly.

@JasonGW: It's not a technical problem. It's a "want" problem. They won't do it because they know tablets and touch computing is the future, and that means that if they'll use WP7 they'll be paid only $10 in the future for every license, instead of $50 or whatever they are charging now for a CE/Win7 license.

So let me get this straight. They will have:

@BobotheTeddy: Same reason the Courier wouldn't have succeed. A tablet shaped like a book is a flawed concept. I keep seeing people wishing for Courier to appear eventually. I suppose it's not different than people wishing for Windows tablets to appear once iPad launched, even though it was obvious a Windows 7 tablet…

@siwex80: Flash on a Tegra 2 tablet won't suck - dual cores + hardware acceleration for Flash. Of course the OS needs to be optimized for dual cores, too, and Honeycomb was made specifically for the Tegra 2 chip (will add support for others later).

@vinod1978: The point was that they will be the first to offer this "new kind" of tablet. The Honeycomb version is supposed to be designed for tablets.

@mrisinger: Technology moved slow back then. New gen tablets used to appear every 1000 years. Now they appear every year.

@talonsmith: Mine too.

Hurry up with that ARM version of Chrome Google, so we can see some dual core Cortex A9 chips in Chrome OS notebooks! There really isn't any point in using Atom for Chrome OS.

@fate47 - meh.: Indeed it's not a rape charge, but a "sex without condom" charge that' not even true anyway.

He's not accused of rape. He's accused of that BS "sex by surprised law" that Swedes have.

@Mr C: It will work offline.

@Kirkaiya: Honeycomb tablets will get the 16:10 1280x800 resolution, which I believe is perfect, just like in laptops. That would give a 4.3" phone 351 PPI - a bit higher than iphone's 4 PPI :).
