Anyone tried Tablet PC? 04/13/2004 02:02 AM

My 4-year-old Thinkpad with a 2-year-old 48 GB disk drive is literally falling apart, having sustained one or two drops too many.  I want to replace it with a new Thinkpad with a 160 GB hard drive but sadly the drive makers aren't producing high-capacity 2.5" drives.  Anyone out there had good luck with Tablet PC?  I'm thinking about getting th is Toshiba to take on a trip to Ecuador and Peru (leaving April 20/21).  It won't have a high-capacity hard drive but it might be a fun toy and would at least do a few things that my current notebook can't.

Please comment if you own or have owned a Tablet PC.

An article at The Register reveals a tablet computer concept that Apple has filed for European design trademark. The images shown with the article depict a machine that resembles the top half on an iBook. With nothing more that the trademark paperwork, a few sketches and a list of Apple engineers and designers to go on, that actual purpose for this device is still unknown.

Many tablet PCs look a lot like laptops, some are as heavy as a lightweight notebook, and they often lack top-of-the-line features. Given these truths, one might wonder why anyone would buy a tablet PC. Will tablet PCs find their market, or should users wait for the next generation of devices?

It's been one year since the launch of the Tablet PC and ComputerWorld assesses its progress over the past twelve months, saying that while it hasn't been a raging success for Microsoft, it hasn't been a dismal failure either. What's been holding it back? The paucity of applications designed specifically to take advantage of the Tablet PC's handwriting recognition software and their high cost compared to a regular laptop.

The A5: Prototype Sub-Tablet

The A5: Prototype Sub-Tablet 07/30/2004 08:55 AM

Gadget Madness brings to our attention a prototype sub-tablet PC called the A5 that is reminiscent of the Sony U50/U70, although not quite as nice looking. While the prototype "runs RISC OS under Windows XP," for most people the "Windows XP" part is all that is going to matter. An integrated 8.4-inch 800 by 600 pixel screen, 40GB hard drive, and detachable keyboard and touchpad round out the unit. Unfortunately, there's no real word on what class of processor it uses, information that is sure to become available if any OEMs decide to actually mass-produce the unit.

Apple Tablet or something.... else?

Apple Tablet or something.... else? 08/13/2004 12:42 PM
Apple has apparently filed for a design trademark on a handheld computer resembling an iBook without the keyboard. From The Register:

"Hints that Apple might be working on such a product emerged in 2003 when a source close to Taiwanese contract manufacturer Quanta claimed that the company had been hired by Apple to build what was dubbed a 'wireless display...

The device is certainly a logical extension of what it's been doing with iTunes and AirPort Express. While its mini wireless access point is good for streaming audio from a host Mac to a hi-fi, it lacks a local control unit. It's tempting to view this latest design filing as the basis for just such a device.'"

Although the sales of mobile devices is continuing to grow, Canalys.com, a market research and advisory company, is reporting that tablet PCs are an insignificant part of this growing trend. Their current research shows notebooks are outselling tablet PCs by a factor of 100 to 1.
