| It looks as if ASUStek is coming back into 
| the fold of FLOSS with a new product this 
| summer, a tablet-format PC. If it runs 
| Android, is it ARM-based? Amen! That may be 
| the best way for an OEM to escape Wintel.

A look at JooJoo web tablet, the iPad rival

,----[ Quote ]
| The device is a rival to the iPad. It has a 
| larger screen than Apple's slate, with a 
| standard 16:9 ratio. It also runs a version 
| of Linux, unlike the iPad, which runs the 
| same operating system as that used by the 
| iPhone handset.
