It is to be expected, given the only thing which seems to set the iTablet apart from anything other manufacturers are doing is the cheeky name. “X2 Computing has not yet revealed when the iTablet will be launched and when it will be available.” It’s Just Another Windows 7 Tablet™ Mind you, if it costs £250, it might well make a splash. The first Maemo tablets were news. The first iPhone OS tablet was news. The first Windows tablets were news (hello, Fujitsu Stylistic). The second and third-generation Windows tablets were news, too ;) More of the same… not so much. Plus, without even an expected launch date, it’s a whole lot of nothing.
