Duo Touch Tablet PC announced

May 31, 2005

Itronix Corp., a world-class
developer of wireless, rugged mobile computing solutions, today introduced the
Duo-Touch Tablet PC, a next-generation, portable, wireless, rugged slate
tablet PC for mobile professionals in industries such as telecommunications,
utilities, government, and insurance. The Duo-Touch feature updates include
the Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 733 from Intel Corporation, integrated
GPS, more memory, a brighter display, and a more rugged case. The name
“Duo-Touch” refers to the new dual-mode touch panel, which provides both a
passive touch screen and standard digitizer, or “active,” touch screen. The
Duo-Touch Tablet PC will be available for delivery in June 2005.
The Duo-Touch Tablet PC is based on the Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor
733 and the Mobile Intel(R) 915GM Express Chipset, making it faster than the
original GoBook Tablet PC. As a result, the system also delivers better
performance without compromising battery life, as well as superior thermal
management. The Duo-Touch utilizes the Microsoft Windows XP(R) Tablet PC
Edition(R) operating system, making the Duo-Touch extremely user-friendly to
field workers already familiar with the XP operating system.

Tablet PCs and DVDs

May 31, 2005

Anybody have experience watching DVDs on their Tablet PC? Read the following blog and leave a comment for this guy:

Tablet PCs and DVDs: “

My dream purchase at the moment is a Tablet PC. It’s out of my price league at the moment but I was wondering how these perform with DVD movies. The slate shape makes it perfect for sitting up in bed watching a DVD on it but I guess these kind of computers would die faster than my laptop does under such conditions. Has anyone had any experience with Tablet PCs and DVDs and especially in more cosy situations such as the one above?

From Why the hell aren’t you interested in God, TS2, Paul Auster, VB.net and DVD commentaries?? (feed)

Drawing like Roman 101

May 31, 2005

its’ great what you pickup through a Feedster search on Tablet PC. This guy creates his drawings using a Wacom tablet and Mac. Hilarious illustrations and quite beneficial to the Tablet PC artists as well.

Drawing like Roman 101
Since so many people ask the process I go through to create these works, I thought I’d whip up a quicky guide to help budding artists follow the process it took to create this piece of art. Please forgive the crudeness of the drawings. I spent like 20 minutes.
It is really simple.

Designing apps for the Tablet PC

May 31, 2005

The Lost Brooklyn Guy has been getting trained to design apps for the Tablet PC. Wonder if he’s looked in to Agilix’s InfiNotes? Wonder what kind of apps he’s going to be working on. Whatever they are, he’s excited about the possibility of trying something new and interesting. Good luck and let us know what happens.

Back At Last: “ Okay, okay … it has been way over a month since last I have posted. I have been really busy. Work has me getting ready to be trained in designing programs for the Tablet PC platform. Does this mean I will get more money? That is doubtful …

School about to take a serious look at Tablet PCs.

May 31, 2005

This from TU Tablet – apparently he thinks that his school / faculty is finally ready to begin taking the Tablet PC seriously. Wonder what school?

Startup: “ The Tablet PC was introduced on my birthday in 2002. My first Fujitsu Tablet PC arrived around the first of December that year. Two and a half years later, four other faculty members (of sixty) have adopted Tablets and I am on my second Fujitsu. It’s been a long, slow process, but the school seems ready to take the Tablet seriously.
