Last note : One example of lack of this styling on one to be featured at Computex , the Viewsonic ViewPad 10 Dual-Boot Tablet

great stuff inside , looks like the usual brushed aluminum HPQ (yukko cheapo ) on the outside... sorry but this is no apple killer till they get the sleeker high tech styling right . Boring boring ...did i say boring ?

* If they hired me , then it would be an apple killer...or better still just go over to the prototype future auto-chasis designers ...or to the fashion/jewelry designer spaces . Let anyone but these asian techno geeks design the housings .

Just to "dull" looking , no spark :

>>These guys have to kick it up a good 3notches in the styling depts...this is where Apple leaves them in the dust but they could so easily counter , but guess being tech heads they miss the point of style ?<<

Even if they do get the hardware right, there are a few other things they'd have to nail as well. Software, for one.
