At the end of the day, does the spec matter anyway?

They could of released a white dog turd with an apple logo on it for £400 and it would sell in it's millions

should have highlighted the jailbreak bit, wasn't really talking about flash. Although i think they have shot themselves well and truely in the foot believing that everyone is suddenly going to make the swap to HTML5. Flash will be around for a long time yet (years and year), it should have been supported from the word go. Infact, Adobe did have it running on a jailbroken iPhone (from what i remember), but Apple didn't want to give them lowlevel access. Seems a bit of a crap thing to do to be honest....

Need a media streamer like TVersity (windows only, TwonkyMedia might do it) which will allow you to browse your library via the iPhones browser and stream video/music/photos etc.

Time to start saving.
I dont think the 3G will interest me, so it seems like a good buy imo.

I'd be pissed if I'd have been out and bought the ipod touch I was wanting at Christmas

Cheapest 3g for me too I reckon, so long as it doesn't arrive at £500. £400 might be ok, £350 I'll have mine straight away

No, thats worldwide.

Although 3G deals may not be done here until June/July - although expect they'll try to get them for the launch.

It can only output 480i - such a shame. With all the chips out there that are able to decode 1080p with minimal effort i would have hoped they went for one.

Looks like they have really gone out to make sure that its as slim as possible and as a result held features off it.

I suspect battery life with any better output would be drastically cut though.

Is that what the tablet is then like a new laptop, not like a new iphone type thing ? So in reality it's a new laptop ?
