Hope they implement this better than they did on the Sony S Tablet as its the only DNLA device in my house that cant push to other devices (inc TV) and annoys the hell out of me.

Other than that the S was good, i liked the shape, they moved to ICS nice and quick and the IR remote feature was a great native feature to have. Didn't see it listed in the specs but I hope they kept the IR in this one. Plus it would be good to expand it and let the bluetooth in it control your PS3 which the S can't do.

That looks just like a Surface...

But with Android instead :-)

I love my tablet s but was going to sell it to get a nexus 7. Might have to wait off a bit now.

Wish sony would be a bit more supportive of the table tthough and maybe even unlock the bootloader.

Probably - and given the old S has been out a long time, then we can guess who copied whom - shame on you Microsoft!

I loved the look of the S - what I was less impressed with was the outrageous pricing at launch (although the clearance prices being offered in the last two months have been very tempting. So here's hoping that they fix that and the UK pricing is "competitive" - not only on the tablet, but also on the accessories. I'd like to see Sony do well in this market niche, since I'll suggest that they're the only company who could "out design" Apple.

For me though, the replacement to my current (but now elderly) Transformer is definitely going to be another Asus product - although the pricing of the Transformer Infinity is a bit eye watering.
