With all the talk about HP's Slate PC, it's funny we didn't hear about the company's second version of the Slate sooner.
That's right, folks, HP has another Slate PC and this one is packing Android. TechCrunch cites a source who claims to have a Slate that is "almost identical in every respect to the one he showed off except for the OS." The source details that their tablet might be just a smidgen smaller than the one Ballmer showed off, but other than that, it looks just like the Windows version seen on Wednesday.
Other than that, there's no other details so still no specifications (sniff), but going on OS alone, would you prefer the Windows Slate or the Android Slate? Let us know in the comments below!

Also the above comment about Win 7 running slower with each update, I have been running it now for 6 months and there has been no system slowdown. Please feel free to share your own actual experiences of Windows 7 slowing down, since there have been lots of updates already.
I'm sure some people will end up getting it for the touch-interface gimmick though (nothing wrong with that), so the Android version will probably end up really popular.
Ok, so now we have the PADD, next stop is tranporters and holodecks and when they do get holodecks up and running... I want it to play Crysis
I'm most excited about the holodecks, but you can't forget warp stuff. Faster than light travel? Gimme!
