....even though now that i read omega's ... and those funny reviews there's some faint memory from the darkest vaults of my brain:

when i got my first tablet, i wasn't particularly impressed, either. i'd expected a more pda-like device. i thought: wtf? no pim? no calendar? no way to read word attachments i recieve in mails? ...?

only after a while i found that the tablet wasn't built to be what i'd expected.... and i hadn't expected a device like the tablet because this whole concept was so new.

eventually i got used to integrating the tablet into my life and at some point found out it fundamentaly changed the way i use the internet.
i remember this when i read some negative reviews. these reviews reflect pretty much my original impressions... it shows that you can't write a review after really using the device the way it was intended.
