Tablet madness is upon us, and if you're like me you can't wait to see what Android looks and feels like on a proper tablet device.  The Asus Eee pad just may be one of those devices.  Originally planned to release with Windows 7 Embedded, Asus has decided to scrap that and run with Android instead.  And get this -- Asus has not ruled out that the device will ship with Gingerbread on board. 

The unit should cost less than $399 USD, and be available in March 2011.  Looking forward to this one myself, hopefully the Eee Pad is as dependable as the Eee series of netbooks, and the price seems right.  [PC World, Zath.co.uk]
