Very cool stuff. Too bad pricing hasn't been announced, but shouldn't be expensive and likely be a huge seller, considering it's a new category in the marketplace.

The only thing missing would be a wireless WAN connection to some citiwide WiFi network. That would be something extremely useful for all kinds of apps. Also, I think the price point will be important, if they can get it for $100-$200 range - I think it'll sell like wildfire.
