As the thread name asks, any ideas?

I've read some different news sites, albeit most that you'd have to take with a grain of salt, talking about all the amazing specs their next tablet will have.
  • 11.6″ display
  • 2560 x 1600 resolution with a 16:10 aspect ratio
  • Dual-core Exynos 5250 CPU clocked at 2GHz
  • Ice Cream Sandwich
  • Android Beam for easy syncing of media with a Galaxy Nexus
  • Special wireless docking mode for gaming on HDTVs

How much of this do you guys think will hold true?

I'm really hoping it drops before the iPad 3 so I can sell my iPad 2 for a decent amount in exchange for the Sammy tab.

Meh, dont see the point in dropping a ton of cash on a tablet when my phone can do the same stuff and it fits in my pocket. Maybe they'll release them both at the same time? Everybody wins.

As a business owner there are times when I need to do some emergency coding on the go. This is much easier and more efficiently done on a tablet with a larger keyboard. Great for note taking at meetings too.

There are also times I need to show a client artwork or a website I've been working on for them. It is a lot more convenient to show them on a larger screen that is easy to carry such as a tablet as opposed to a laptop or small screen device such as my phone.

Well, it seems to be quite an impressive gadget. Of course if it has all that you mentioned. On the other hand, I used to believe that tablets were not useful and I also believed that everything could be done with my iPhone. However, as someone said before, there are so many times when a bigger screen is needed. That’s why I got an iPad 2

Agreed. I own an iPad 2 now but I'm not at all impressed. Too many limitations. No proper file management, can't upload files on browser based sites, etc.

I am waiting for this Tablet. 11.6" Screen with ICS and android beam, yes PLEASE! I love my G Nexus and want to have a matching tablet. Hoping official announcement is made at MWC. Rumor's have said it may pack a Quad Core but I would say the safe bet is a dual core, but should be more than enough to satisfy clocked at 2ghz.

I'd like to see a spec-ed out 8.9" Sammy tablet running vanilla ICS - in other words, a Nexus tablet.
