I can predict the market response: "meh".
EDIT: I figured I should add that I have looked at the large touchscreen PCs as sold in Best Buy, etc. and while the concept looks very intriguing, playing around with them for even a few minutes shows why they would be frustrating in practice.
The UI requires too much precision - for instance, to close an application you have to stab precisely on the X in the upper right corner - there should be a modification that is either more forgiving or the X should be larger, etc.
Further, higher resolution (which should be nicer) is just as bad if not worse - as the need for precision increases.
Lastly, the focus by the big manufacturers still seems to be "stack em deep and sell em cheap" - leaving little $$$ or motivation to improve the UI to a level as good as an iPad.
I think that NotionInk.com is on to something, though when shipping product will arrive, I don't know.
