It will support Netflix. Reed Hastings is the founder and CEO of Netflix, and he sits on Microsoft's board of directors. To give Netflix advance notice on Android device developments would be suicidal.
It's not really the locking of the bootloader that's the problem. It's that locking the bootloader expresses a desire for control. Implied is that that control will be abused.
The US Justice department is infiltrated with agents of Big Media. They don't care what the law is, they know what they want it to be and they have power.
Replacing the entire retail box software sales and online software sales and VAR partner software sales industries with their own integrated app store comes second.
All those things you need for business continuity will start not working one by one. And then you will join the happy upgrader crowd and brag your ROI on the upgrade like everybody else. Again.
I don't see how you got that from my comment. My Asus tablet has great fit and finish, a metal rather than plastic case. My three year old grandson has used it in the inimicable ways of toddlers without harm. While I wouldn't worry about the smaller, lighter 7" Acer the plastic case of the A500 was a consideration.
Yes to a, b and c. You can't even fit a sodimm in a modern tablet, let alone the connector. Generally speaking DRAM requires continuous electrical refresh, and that burns battery. 1GB is actually immense for a portable Linux, so it should be fine.
The Acer is also good gear. I almost got the A500 over the Asus TF101 I typed this on. A700 is a slamming deal. I may get the A700s if the Asus is out of stock, and they probably will be. ASUS never makes enough to go around. At this point though Asus has earned a little bit of brand loyalty with me. The tf101 has weathered a year of toddler love and got ICS promptly.
I generally hate it when people say things like this, but... if you have this kind of problem, you likely have this kind of money too. They sort of go together.

People will pay more for good audio equipment.

It runs Android just fine, and this will be worked out. The CoStar at $99 does too. No worries.
What a coincidence. All Microsoft mobile products appear to be called "Windows (x)" even though Windows has nothing to do with it.
It's too late. A year ago this might have worked.

This is the year of Linux on the desktop in your pocket. 400 million customers and a million more every day.

No, that was threatening their OEM partners with own-brand PCs, sold out of their own websites and retail stores no less.

Hence Software Asurance, where they get your money and get to say you've licensed it, even though you'll never even do a pilot. They win anyway.

And can only use it for 9 hours without charging. So sad.
What you wrote is true, but laptops don't have 14 hour battery life. That needs to be said.
They are available as a set.
If by geeks you mean IT engineers that bill lawyer money, I know lots of them who love iPad. Not my thing, but don't exclude them.

It's handy for watching movies in bed.
