Is it just me or is this a highly underrated entry-level Android tablet? It's a $300 printer at Best Buy now (list $400, $100 instant rebate) and has a 7" tablet they call Xeen as a controller. The tablet is running 2.1 out of the box, but you can enable "Beta Software" and get a 2.2 upgrade from HP. Sure, there's no Marketplace so paid apps are a bit tough, but it does include SlideMe. I can now use it as a little web browser, to view my IP cameras, play Pandora, and I installed Flash on it so I can use it with PlayOn to watch Hulu and Netflix (it's a bit choppy, but it's watching Hulu and Netflix on my PRINTER!).

As a basic tablet it's hard to beat the price if you're in the market for a printer as well. While I was there I handled the Xoom a bit as well, certainly the thinking man's iPad but in a very different class than my cheap little Xeen printer controller. :)

And you have to love the hplip Linux drivers - I can print and scan over WiFi without issues and without Windows.
