The tablet runs Android 2.2 with Dell's Stage UI for now, but Dell promises an upgrade to Honeycomb once it's ready. It sounds like one of the more well-rounded 7-inch tablets on the market right now and at just $200 on contract at T-Mobile (it's $450 without), it's actually quite well priced. However, there are quite a few things that are going to keep 7-inch tablet seekers from forking over the cash."</em></p><p><em><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/lpt/auto/1296690875.usr10.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></em></p><p>Looks like another close but no cigar. &nbsp;I'm itching for a 7 inch tablet but after already being burned on one that wasn't ready for prime time, I'm pretty gun shy. &nbsp;Hopefully there should be a plethora of acceptable options in less than 6 months.</p><p><em></em></p>
