Just FYI, the JooJoo has a webcam.

how about the Hanvon Touchpad B10?

You can also add the Augen78 tablet, theoretically available at K-mart for $170. Android 2.1, 600MHz (or 800) processor, USB, 7" screen, 512Mb RAM, 2Gb storage. It has issues, but it is 1/3 the price of anything else on your list.

Can you guys also place a battery life in these tables. That is one of the most important feature for the tablets.

 

[denial_]

It could have been great to be able to compare the weight in the chart too (I think it's a very important aspect of any mobile electronics, like laptop and mobile phone)

Also, you have forgotten the Huawei SmaKit S7, which _should_ be out over the next few days...

Notion Ink Adam looks like the best device with e-ink plus ced backlighing. Nope it is around 500. Plus it has nivdia tegra 2

Light dawns on Marblehead! Now I see why apple had to use a bastardized version of it's phone OS, the damn things practically a calculator.

Don't forget OpenPeak's tablet/Pic Frame - http/www.openpeak.com/OpenTablet7.php

The Dell Streak has a 30-pin port not a USB port.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the iPad run on OS 3.x?

How about the HP TM2 and TX2?

 

[willgart]

The Exopc price is 599$ (same price as the iPad with 32gb) available in september.
Also the battery is indicated on the site to 5h, and 10 for the iPad, but I prefer to see real comparative tests (video playback on iPad = 5h...)

Finally i found the ExoPC as a better device than the iPad (connections & IO, size, webcam, real OS)
I can use Skype on it! well... the webcam is certainly not the best on the market... but I can certainly connect another one on the USB port.

and becoming from a startup company, I'll encourage it for sure!

Agreed. However, manufacturers usually overly exaggerate the battery life.

On another note, that Archos 9 looks like a steal.. A full OS

I am not an Apple fan but I have to say iPad is so far the most balanced one. Atom CPU is so painfully slow. It makes me want to step on those netbooks. Windows 7 or Linux is just not a good OS for tablet. iPad is balanced which I hate to admit. Maybe WebOs will be a good option.

Archos is a Ah NO. It is so slow.

Lenovo s10 3t. Touch Screen netbook or tablet at walmart for 400 right now. I want to get one and put Ubuntu Netbook 10.10 on it.

HP Touchsmart Tm2t is definitely one one of the best tablet PCs. i5 CPU with a dedicated ATI GPU and 8 GB of RAM. It's battery life is around 5-6 hours, and the Wacom, capacitive screen is both touch and stylus input.
