The Samsung Q1EX is one of the best iPad alternatives. It uses an x86 and runs Windows XP.

To be honest, consider if you really need this or if it is just a toy.
For that price, I would make 2 or 3 weeks holidays :D

@Trond: They have a 3 hole version now with a much larger screen intrface... 8.5 X 11 inches in the USA!!! :wink:

Microsoft cancelled the SLATE from FoxConn... There are several other ideas being built by FoxConn ad Inventec for quite a few large compaines... They keep trying to tie them to business (read: make them more expensive) or simplify them (read: make much more profit for MUCH less featureage!) or simply make it so you HAVE to have G4 connection (Read: Pay MONTHLY FEE to use FOREVER!!!)

I am sticking with me Sony eBook for reading on the road... my laptop for all else on the road...

Of course I do like the Lenovo Pad idea!!! :mrgreen:

ARCHOS 10.1" Internet Tablet:

This runs Android (which is not as locked down as iOS).

There is also some Windows 7 tablet there:
