I like the look of that m700. Might be good to finally replace the m200.

MS should really have made the Tablet PC edition features free in XP Pro. Today we’d have surely seen greater adoption.

Yeah, it’s weird that Microsoft actually tries to market tablet PCs at students when they’re wayyyy too expensive.

If you look at the comments on Direct2Dell, they’re all telling Dell to lower the price. Maybe Dell will listen?

Hmm, looks a little old school, doesn’t it? I can recommend the HP tx1000 series. The tablet functionality may not as good as this offerend by Dell but it’s cheaper and (imo) better looking. And Vista runs great!

“Am I the only one who thinks this tablet looks thick and ugly?”
I think the picture Long used has the docking station (or whatever it is) on the bottom so it looks a tad thicker than it actually is. It’s still thinner than my Inspiron 9200 and I think it looks pretty good.

I got a second-hand tablet PC from eBay while I was at University. I would import lecturer’s powerpoint slides into OneNote, and then write notes on top – an awesome way of notetaking!

That’s true, being in college, this would sell like hotcakes. Also, it would be very helpful in classes and studying.

I want to know how long before we have cheap infrared based multitouch displays? Microsoft already made a prototype and it worked perfectly fine…. And might I mention that the infrared was on a laptop.
