Gonna be pretty honest here.....

If I had a tablet, my main usage would be as a ebook reader ^^.
One of the things I dislike about ebook on pc is you cant lay with them in your bed, or take it with you on the WC, or just spraw in liveing room on a comfortable couch.

There after probably for browseing the net... and watching movies.

I dont really have a intrest in gameing on anything without a keyboard+mouse, or a controller of some sort.

That said most of these tablets you can probably use a USB port and hookup a game controller too.

Exactly my thoughts. I don't play on my tablet.

That would be and expensive Kindle :D

Most controllers are Wireless or Bluetooth of some sort, so I don't think you really need more than one USB port on a Windows 8 tablet.

That said, I have two iPads and never use them. I do all of my video watching and browsing on my Droid DNA. Plenty big to get all of that stuff done.

Looks pretty good. I for one don't want to jump into the tablet game unless it's with a Windows & x86 system and Kabini certainly looks to be prime oppurtunity. I remember a reference design from CES I believe that had a keyboard dock supposedly with a dedicated GPU (I imagine Oland for CFX compatibility). Such a system would be very attractive at a decent price like $600.

the Atom used on the other tablet have the seriously slow IGP from powervr (SGX545), I'm surprised that it can run a PC game that well.
