Comment hacker time (Score 1) 239

the #1 thing in my view is to have a period set aside, so that Developers can work on/learn/develop something new, which may or may not be directly applicable to the project at hand. - it should (preferably) at least have some relationship to software development - it doesn't have to be a lot of time - even say an hour a week, or one Friday afternoon a month. At Google, employees get 20% of their time to work on whatever they want. - the developer has to report back his findings to the rest of the group

How about waiting until the product is actually launched before starting to say how it can never match the iPad?

How about waiting till the product is actually available before unveiling it? As someone else said - this is one thing Apple does that makes their announcements really mean something. There's no evidence given the vague specs that MS can ever match the iPad, and given that they're at least 3 generations behind, it's a fair comment until MS give us some concrete reason to think otherwise.
