Interesting discussion going on prompted in part by Michael Gartenberg’s post on SlashGear about the Nokia Booklet 3G. He lists four reasons (style, quality, indulgence, battery life) why it is worth buying, even at a steeper price than most Netbooks.

LAPTOP Magazine has delivered an in-depth review of the Nokia Booklet 3G, one of the most thorough I’ve read so far, and sucks the wind out of what I think is its most attractive feature.

Last year Toshiba waded into the Android tablet market with the Thrive, a 10.1-inch slate that served as the company’s response to what they deemed missing in the then current crop. Thus, it had several full-size ports, a rugged-ish exterior, and a thick chassis to accommodate both. Though a decent tablet, the Thrive didn’t generate [...]

That doesn’t mean that Samsung is shying away [...]
