Any way my point was that in all reviews pwr consumption was compared to desktop systems (Atom D-series doesn't support SpeedStep for example). So it worth wait and see an actual netbooks on bobcat before draw a conclusion. 9W-11W at idle seems to me a bit too high for tablets. My Asus T101 (N450) consumes ~4.5W from the wall socket at idle.
