Going Down in Tablet PC History
Posted by Lyn under Tablet PC , Travelling Tablet PCs , Tablet PC Hardware
All the appeals have failed. (See our last-ditch attempt at the Quebec Court of Appeals here.) The TC1100 has been abandoned by HP. We decided it was time to throw in our hats and admit defeat. All we can hope to do is write the history of this sorry course of events.
So the TC1100 got on a plane, flew across the Atlantic. A little cappuccino in the new coach station at Heathrow to fortify us for our adventure.
And the TC1100 took its book proposal for "The betrayal of fantasy: HP and the TC1200 that never was" to the venerable Oxford University Press.
But we didn’t get past the Security.
The letter carrier didn’t seem phased by our antics.

Your efforts are much appreciated. I bought a TC1100 a couple of months ago, and I love it. It wasn’t until a week after I bought it that I heard that HP had killed them. I thought about returning it, but it’s such a great machine so I held onto it. Too bad HP doesn’t just leave well enough alone.

They cancelled Star Trek in 1969, too.
