    Any news about this tablet being refreshed with a real processor, hopefully an AMD fusion A6 or something?

    This is basically what I want in a computer/tablet. All computer, but easily turned into a tablet for watching movies on the go.

    Any ideas? I can't believe they haven't done it yet...

    Frankly I'd be surprised if they updated the Duo at all. I don't think it's a particularly hot seller and it's not very pleasant to use.

    Buy a standard convertible tablet?

    Got some good ones? I know ASUS said they want an ultrabook tablet by 2012. But a fusion tablet would be best.

    Also, HP touchpads are going back on sale this sunday for $99 on the HP ebay store under laptops. Good luck if you want one, I will try for one.
