Sigh. I'm building these into a "kiosk"-like application where the great touchscreen, nvidia graphics, and good cpu are awesome.

We sort of knew this would eventually happen but it still sucks.

Developing on Android in Java is pretty gross, esp without rooting.

I would love some sort of vanilla Linux tablet that had something like a 10 year SLA and basic support. Ideally a system with PC architecture hardware that has great support by vanilla linux kernel.

The idea is to reduce your dependency on a Big company that only cares about consumer whims for a couple years at a time.
