  • At this point, the key thing that will determine the fate of #iSlate is it's price and if that price will be subsidized by a cell carrier. #
  • @mikerubits – Andriod tablets, sir. There'll be a couple WinCE tablets, but even Dell and HP are going 'droid for small touch slates. in reply to mikerubits #
