And here is why:
It is the only one that brings something new to the table. The shape has grown on me, and it is easier to hold. The IR port is smart, really smart. I hope this is something that catches on. Remotes are a premium in my house, the kid likes to grab them and run to her room and hide them. I am scared to spend a few hundred on a fancy all in one remote, and at least this way I will have them all together. I can forgive the HDMI not being there, because I can use DLNA on almost every tv I have.

I looked hard at the other tablets, namely the Samsung and the Xoom. But here is the question, why would I buy one of them when the specs on my Droid Bionic are better? Even the new Xoom2 wasn't anywhere near what I thought it should be.

I guess it depends on what you will use it for, and in my case it is a little bit of everything. I will be doing a lot of business over the Sony, but its entertainment factor really works for me too. I think of it as a high dollar toy that is a tax write off.
 
I am thinking about getting the Sony S. I am deciding between that and the ASUS Transformer.

I have a few questions about the Sony though.

First, how does it feel it your hands? Do you usually use it with one, or both hands? Is it comfortable to use in both landscape and portrait mode? I know that it's really nice to use in landscape mode on a desk, but how about portrait mode? I could think that it would be annoying because one side would be slanted downwards.
