Taco Cowboy writes "Marvell's Moby tablet will be an always-on, high performance multimedia tablet capable of full Flash support and 1080p HD playback and supporting WiFi, Bluetooth, FM radio, GPS and both Android and Windows Mobile platforms for maximum flexibility. It could eliminate the need for students to buy and carry bound textbooks and an array of other tools. The tablet is expected to hold a full year's worth of books but weigh less than half of one typical textbook." The tablet is a bit vaporous at this point, but if the final device comes anywhere near these specs and price point, it could be attractive.

Actually, most of my time is spent fighting crime vigilante-style on the streets of a major city in a brightly colored spandex suit. I only spend a few minutes at a time on the computer.
By "brightly colored" do you mean to say "Cheetoes-stained and mom hasn't done the laundry yet"?
