Unless you have been living under a Windows rock, you should at least have heard of the Linux tablet - Spark.

Well, it seems it is going to take off and you can now pre-order yours:

I'm in two minds about this, lets hope my fears are not realized and it fails before it even starts.

Some more reading on the matter:

Saw the article on omgubuntu and to be honest the first impression I got when looking at the video wasn't good. The interface looks a bit clumsy and unresponsive, or the guy in the video just had stubby fingers :D

I am glad that there are alternatives coming in now, but I'll wait hold off on this one for now.
