CES 2008: Microsoft Origami Experience 2.0 Booth

The Origami Experience 2.0 looked neat. The first version of it was only relatively helpful since it left much to be desired as far as usability, but it looks like MS took more into account such as actual usage.  There’s a NOW screen that grabs all the things it thinks are new and interesting [...]

CES 2008: Tablet/UMPC Meet-up!

Thanks to GottaBeMobile, JKOnTheRun, TabletLawyer, MobileDemand, and Microsoft for sponsoring the 2008 CES Tablet/UMPC meet-up!

CES 2008: Toshiba Protégé M700

I didn’t get as much time as I hoped with this on, but it sure is a powerhouse for only 4.6 lbs. You can get a 2.6 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo which is pretty sweet for a tablet with dual touch and pen. I really liked my M200 and it seems they’ve only improved [...]

CES 2008: Cool HP Monitor

Wouldn’t this be neat to have for tablet work? It has great clarity and brightness, also.

CES 2008: Samsung’s Q1 Ultra / Ultra Premium

Samsung had quite the showing at CES, with a giant section and a good chunk of it showing off their many variations of the Q1 Ultra/Ultra Premium. I think “Ultra Premium” is going a little overboard on the naming, but I’ll put that aside for now. After playing with this in person, [...]

CES 2008: Day 2 Update - Chest Cold?

I think I have a chest cold so I’m loaded (with the recommended dosage, of course) on NyQuil. A little out of it now because of it, so I’ll save both you and I the trouble of embarrassing/weird posts and wait till tomorrow. The tablet meet-up was a blast. Thanks to all the sponsors. [...]

CES 2008: Fujitsu Lifebook T4220

What a great Tablet PC. It just looks nice. OK, it does more than look nice, it’s a great design for tablet use and has many features that would make it a great full-time computer, such as a powerful processor and a media drive that can double as a second battery. It’s not new, but [...]

CES 2008: HP TX2000 short video

Still not sure on battery life (I’ll find out at the tablet meet-up) but here’s a short video of the screen of the TX2000 along with a picture comparison of how much brighter the HP is than my X61T. I think my brightness is up all the way… Again, sorry that the quality [...]

CES 2008: Toshiba’s Prototype UMPC (short video)

Sleek and different, not to big, and with a nice screen, this UMPC looks like a neat idea. I usually like more buttons since those tend to be more flexible, but this one has some neat features like scroll just by tilting (not sure how that would work in the long-run) and neat [...]
