Quite a positive review from someone who was already familiar with WebOs. According to the comments, one of his concerns, the longer boot and app-opening times, is already being addressed by the Homebrew modding community, so it's not an irrevocable concern.
One thing I don't understand, the mentioned lack of modem with the CPU, does this mean someone without wifi cannot use this tablet?

The WebOS internals folks have stepped up and released a patch that reduces the amount of logging the OS does. Apparently it seriously improves performance. If the OS is indeed doing a whole bunch of disk IO that it shouldn't be doing, that will explain a lot of the lag issues.
