Good thing it'll have an eight hour battery life, because with Windows 7 on an Atom processor, it'll take that long to do anything! Ok, maybe not, but my point is is that Windows 7 is a Desktop/Laptop OS, it's too bloated for a Tablet. iOS may be a "wattered down tablet/phone" OS, but guess what, that's what is was designed for... phones and tablets! You don't see Android running on a desktop/laptop do you? Wouldn't be too useful because it wouldn't be using the full potential of the hardware it is installed on. You can't knock iOS for running on hardware it was designed for, especially when you don't mention the other tablet/phone OS(WebOS, Andriod, etc)... doing so just shows your unjustified hate towards Apple. Then there is the price. The link you provided just simply says it'll be under $1000... but how far under? You can buy an iPad from $500-$700(without 3G since after all the CL900 doesn't have 3G). If this tablet cost more, then of course it should be better. You have to compare Apples to Apples(pun not intended), so trying to compare an UNRELEASED tablet running an OS that hasn't proven to be useful on a Tablet like iOS and iPad have been, then you have nothing to stand on.
I'm sure there will be some out there hating what I've written, but if you want to make comparisons, you can't provide half truths, otherwise you are just showing your bias and how unreliable your opinion is.
