I would think that the Pepper isn't small enough to be in the PDA
market, but portables without stylus support don't quite compare either.
I'm more curious how it compares specifically to (subnotebook) tablets.
Two summers ago I interned in a place with tablet PCs. My major
conclusion from the experience: With a pen interface, pretty decent art
is even possible from MS Paint.
On that subject, what is the landscape of Linux-based Tablet PCs looking
like? Is the hardware support decent? Is the price?
