What is the likelihood of any improvements in hardware (ie wireless N) coming out in over the summer. I don't start school until the middle of August so I have a bit of time and I'd like to wait for the best product available. I'm looking to spend 3K or less with peripherals, etc.

Does Compaq make a convertible as well as a tablet? The one I saw had a nice small screen and a little keyboard. I thought it was a convertible, but evidently not.
