The ubiquitous popup is irritating as shit, and sometimes you have no idea why there's a badge on an app's icon at all.

But I've yet to encounter a perfect OS, which is pretty much the only consolation. In this instance, it's kind of like saying I've never had a girlfriend who didn't try and stab me in the dick, but then, that's essentially the ideas.

Thus far, the iPad fills the niche that I wanted that eee 901 to fill. If the user experience fails, I'll be disappointed, but the device is cheap enough that I'll have minimum buyer's remorse.

I'm anxiously awaiting the first virus for this OS, which, given it's dearth of security features, will be in about seven weeks. Seven weeks if I'm lucky.
