Apple Tablet or something.... else?


Apple Tablet or something.... else? 08/13/2004 12:42 PM
mac_tabletApple 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.'"

Do you buy the Apple Tablet rumor?


Do you buy the Apple Tablet rumor? 12/02/2003 01:58 AM
Ever since Bob Cringley posted his November 27th article titled, "Apple's Tablet Computer Might Finally Be That Link Between Your PC and TV" the Mac web has been abuzz in renewed Mac tablet/PDA speculation. We've heard it all before. Pre-MacWorld Expo Tablet Hysteria is as predictable as Pre-Millennium Armageddon Panic and, historically, just as likely to be accurate.

What do you say? Will 2004 be "The Year of the Tablet"? Sound off in our web poll!

Reports suggest that the tablet may be a wireless access point and part of a larger home entertainment system. The Register has also reported that Quanta, a Taiwanese manufacturer, has been tapped by Apple to build a "wireless display."

Anyone tried Tablet PC?


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.

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.

The A5: Prototype Sub-Tablet


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

A5land.jpg imageGadget 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.

GooRoo RugBoard Tablet


GooRoo RugBoard Tablet 08/19/2004 07:35 AM

rugboard.jpg imageThe GooRoo RugBoard is a 766MHz tablet-type computer with a 10.4-inch SVGA screen (the processor is listed as a "266MHz" on one screen and 766MHz on another, but I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt). In addition, it has integrated 802.11g and up to 512MB of onboard flash memory (which is to say, no hard drive). It's certainly not trying to compete with Windows Tablet PCs, but dumb or not, I've always been a fan of these little dumb tablet terminals, even if I really don't have a need for one.

Actually, the more I read it, the more I think that there was an older version of RugBoard with the crappy specs, but that GooRoo has announced a newer, updated version with the faster processor and updated Wi-Fi. That makes a little more sense.

Modern computer screens (like the one you're looking at now) can display, oh, 1024 x 768 dots of resolution, and often more. (OMG, N00b. - ed.)
