The Freescale Tablet

From the article:

It is a reference design, so contrary to the blogosphere’s reports, Freescale will not release this device.

Apple ships the iPad in under a month.
 
Doesn't actually exist, fugly interface... no mention of weight or battery life. SUpport for multiple OS's is nice, but other than Android none of them have a ton of touch screen application support/availability.

This is basically the same as the other tablets we have seen so far, and in the past really. Until there is a 7-10" tablet running Android, an OS designed for finger input from the ground up, I don't think we will see much competition for the iPad as a general purpose multimedia consumption device.
 
No wonder they won't release the device its fugly. I'll take the iPad any day over that.
 
Your choice of one of three Linux OS (Android, Ubuntu and Millos) on a vaporware tablet.

Oh yeah we really needed this thread on the eve of iPad pre orders. :rolleyes:

BTW, you do remember whose processors Apple ditched to move to Intel? Motorola/Freescale. :p
