Just getting opinions, because I bought a new [ see, used ] tablet hybrid. The exact laptop is the Compaq TC1000 [ shut up about 'compaq sucks' before you start ]
The specs are by no means impressive.
Transmeta Crusoe TM5800 1GHz
256MB RAM, 768MB in a few days
30GB hard disk
10.4" XGA TFT wide angle viewing film, hard tempered glass covering
NVIDIA GeForce2 Go 100 graphics controller 16MB SDRAM
Compaq Premier Sound, 2 integrated speakers, support for stereo headsets, support for mono headsets
6-cell Li-Ion technology, bridge battery for fast battery swapping while in standby mode
1 Type II PC Card slot & 1 Type II CompactFlash slot
Integrated Type III MiniPCI 56K (V.92) modem & 10/100 NIC with integrated wireless LAN connectivity with 802.11a & 802.11b antennas
MS Windows XP Tablet PC Edition
2 x USB 2.0, 1 x RJ45, 1 x RJ11, 1 x VGA, 1 x Internal 802.11b wireless networking, 1 x External Multibay connector, 1 x Microphone Jack, 1 x Headset Jack, 1 x Audio-Out Jack
95% Keyboard & point stick, convenient like a laptop or as a tablet & able to detach from Tablet, pen uses the FinePoint Technology [ requires 1 AAAA battery, $4 for 2 batteries ]
10.8 x 8.5 x 8.0" or 27.4 x 21.6 x 2.0cm
1.36kg (Tablet PC only) or 1.8kg (Tablet PC & Keyboard)
Cost me $388 for the comp, and $40 for the extra 512mb RAM, and $4 for batteries
So, yeah. Not too shabby in my opinion. Any opinions of yours?
