The Latest from the Tablet PC World

I haven't written anything about tablet PCs for a while. Among the many developments in that world, these three are the most relevant to me and my interests, so here's a quick update.

First, the much anticipated Dell tablet PC is about to be released on the 11th. There's been a lot in the press about this tablet recently, including its users manual getting leaked online, so it's safe to say that people are dying to get their hands on one. Let's see how it matches up against the rest of the competition. I'll update this blog once the results are in.

Speaking of competition, though, Lenovo is giving a 20-25% discount on its ThinkPad laptops (including the X Series Tablet) and accessories for Christmas (that is, if you order before 17 December). Now if only I had a spare $3,500 lying around...

Finally, as more and more people claim that the HP 2710p has the best tablet PC experience out there, I guess I might as well take a better look at it. I still think it's too underpowered for my needs, but it sure does look good, doesn't it? Oh well.
