This is something that will quickly become a doorstop at Toshiba. Who's going to write apps for it? Who will maintain the product? If they don't sell millions upon millions why bother supporting the product once it's off the shelves?

Why such hostility to this?  Is it because it uses a Cell processor which also happens to be used in the PS3?

Also note that this is NOT the Cell used in the PS3. It has several SPUs removed and video circuitry and other gardware goodies added instead.

The one in the PS3 is actually a modified version of the original but it's still a cell processor.
