Toshiba Tablet PC kinda hybrid

Thursday, January 5th, 2006

Saw this curious looking Toshiba Tablet PC/ laptop at Fosfor Gadgets.

It seems to be running OneNote. Looks like the CPU / hard drive is in the keyboard part of the laptop yet you can separate the display but need the wireless to keep connected to the keyboard/cpu part. Hmmm, bit of a funny animal.

See more pictures here at Fosfor gadgets.

 

Tablet PC Decision Time: Hybrid, Convertible or Slate?

Tablet PC Decision Time: Hybrid, Convertible or Slate?

Do you see the poll on the right? Why don’t you make your choice and leave us a comment justifying yourself.emoticon

I’ll go first.

Hybrid (shocking eh?)

Why?

Choice. Choice. Choice. I can have it as a convertible or as a slate, pending needs. And when I have it as a slate it’s a pound lighter.

Ok, your turn.

Oh TC1100: a lament for our Tablet PC

Friday, December 16th, 2005

Here is my poem (in Macromedia Flash -click to view) I read OnTheRun with Tablet PCs lamenting the HP discontinuation of the world’s favourite hybrid Tablet PC.

Write to Mark Hurd, CEO of HP, and bring your personal appeal to save this lovely Tablet PC (or encourage HP to create a TC1200).

TC1100 = the perfect egg

Monday, November 28th, 2005

 
I said during Sunday’s OnTheRun with Tablet PC’s podcast (with James Kendrick and Marc Orchant) that the TC1100 is like an egg: the perfect food. Just like an egg, the TC1100 integrates the keyboard (the white) with the slate part (the yolk) in a perfect union.

The TC1100 is a source of high-quality mobile hybrid computing and a significant contributor to the overall satisfaction level of Tablet PC users.

In our house we are lucky to have two eggs.
