Does anyone have any real info on the WePad?

WePad.

This is actually the first I’m hearing about it. The six hour max battery life is a dealbreaker for me, though. I need better than that.

I have been searching for more info myself.

I really was digging the iPad at first, until word of Steve Jobs anti-flash campaigning reached my ears. I don’t like that they want to control my web experience and to add insult to injury they spew lies about their reasons for not allowing flash.

With my dreams of owning a cool tablet dashed I resigned myself to net-book hell or at least that was until WePad came along. Thank god for those crazy Germans and their iPad rip-off that is actually better than the iPad. I just hope that I don’t have to read German to get it working ;-)

@Seek_Kolinahr Such is the price of computing power, I guess. Of course, those specs are for the first-gen models. I am sure that between advances in battery technology, manufacturing methods, and some shrewd power management, they’ll be in the 8–10 hour range at least if they make it to 3rd-gen. And who know, maybe a strap-on external battery could be an option.

Personally, I’ve never needed more than 4–5 hours myself, but I’m not you. However, I think that the choice will always be “small/light, fast, or long-lasting: pick two”.
