2010 seems to be the year of tablet/slate/pad computing.  RIM is now talking about taking on Apple and Android in this area.  Is there any possibility of an Amiga related OS (any of them) joining the party?


Not sure about AOS4 support, AROS is possible if it can be ported to ARM, but what is really interesting at the moment is these chinese tablets on eBay:

(BTW, I am not the seller, I just think these things are amazing value)

You get an 800mhz Tablet (Remember the iPad is only 1ghz)

And you also get Android of course. I'm sure other OS's can be installed on these things too.

For £67.89 (I think you can get them for around $100 in the US) these things are impressive.

I'm tempted to order either one of these or a Dingoo... I'm seeing if Android has good emulator support first. :D

Is it just me or are these chinese tablets impressive?
