My guess is it will more likely be 350 or nearer 400. There is no prentence to be an Ipad killer here. The message is "don't despair if you can't afford an Ipad- this is almost as good for less than half the price". OK so now we have the Ipad pricing, and it converts to £309 for the basic model.

I don't know much about corporate marketing, but I wonder if this is a deliberate 'leak', a.k.a. a spoiler. Particularly interesting that they have leaked the price- presumably this will be a fraction of Apple's price? This may be unashmedly the 'poor mans Islate', making no attempt to be anything other than a consolation prize for those who can't afford the real thing? “We don’t imagine having this information leaked out mere hours before details of Apple’s epoch-changing, world-saving, genre-defining (etc etc) Tablet is set to be announced will be the greatest news for the Archos team”
