add on keyboard isn't worth $150..might as well get a laptop then.. The screens are pretty close.. If your not comparing them side by side,you would never know..

The Lenova has something new, hardware DRM, which although I hate DRM will allow it to use new Netflix service which should allow local storage of movies and other features that sound pretty cool. I have debated endlessly and have pretty much decided on waiting for the Sony. Hard choice, the Toshiba and Acer have way more connection options, the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is a beautiful machine and I think the Xoom is nice but seems like they will never fix the sd problem, I can't help but think it is a hardware issue that may never really be fixed. I hope I'm wrong there, but I'm not willing to take the risk. One thing I will do is keep reading these threads and someone will probably say something that will make me fold and run down to BB,
wondering what took me that long.

I heard it reads but doesn't write, anyway my interest in it passed some time ago. I'm sure its a great tablet though.

Tom T, what's Hardware DRM?
I'm kinda confused with the procssors. Do all of this Tablets have the same processor (all dual Core NVIDIA® Tegra™ T20 1.0GHz Processor, Tegra 2 = Dual core???)?
The sony tablet is a beautiful tablet indeed but what else led you to this decision? I can't find any informations about it.
Currently I balance between the lenovo thinkpad tablet and the archos g9 10 incho. The Lenovo offers many good onboard apps, it features pen input and gorilla glas (which makes quite a difference as I just found out). The Archos has a better processor, it has a nice media app and it looks a little bit more modern (and you could have 250 gb of hdd storage, I would buy the flash version (slimer and lighter)). The display seems to be ok (archos says wide viewing angles) and with the 3g version has a removable dongle which you could use for the computer too. Does anybody know anything about the build quality (expect the Thinkpad Tablet to be a good tablet regarding the build quality) and the screen? No need to say that both of them feature sd slot and usb port (and hdmi). I rather tend to buy the Lenovo because the pen seems to be very useful. Does anybody know another tablet with digitizer pen input? Or a tablet that is as fast as the archos (dual core 1.5ghz)? The kal-el tablets seem to be still many months away and there are no official informations of tablet manufacturer out yet (or am I wrong?). What would you rather go for the archos or the lenovo?
