Here's a picture of the new Gateway (/AOL/Transmeta) Touch Pad computer. We're going to see a lot of tries in this space, but I'm unconvinced so far. I think this one falls too much in the middle space. Either you want a full fledged general purpose computer, or you want specific digital media devices (mp3 players, digital VCRs, ect...) I don't think anyone wants a low power general computing device. But we're definitely going to see. (I guess you could argue that this is a specific digital media device, the specifics being web surfing and email.)
