LG C1 Tablet PC spotted in the wild?

LG last wowed us with its ever-so-delicious Chocolate phone (and then that newer Black Sapphire), but for you folks of the PC persuasion who've been feeling a little left out, we've got something to whet your appetite too. We've just been alerted to the new LG C1 tablet PC, spotted in the jungles of the internet -- and no, it's not that other C1. Details are skimpy for now, but TabletPCReview is saying -- unconfirmed of course -- that she'll be packin' an Intel Core Duo proc along with a nVIDIA graphics card, as well as a free pack of Pall Malls with every purchase. If from the photos you're thinking the C1's case looks an awful lot like the LG T1, well, you read our minds exactly. Furthermore, we can spot a SIM card door on the underside (see pic after the break) so you can get your EDGE on -- you know, for those few remote outposts left in the world that haven't discovered WiFi yet. Naturally, though, we'd love to be totally blown away with some HSDPA action instead of that weak sauce EDGE, but hey, that's what expansion slots are for.

Now that's a sexy looking tablet. If it doesn't blow up then they might have a winner!

If it has a DVI port and/or at least a S-video output, then I'm sold. Those two details alone is preventing me from wanting to get the Gateway CX210.

Design looks great; can't wait to see some specs.

The cigs are what make the laptop cool. Remember, that's why all the little ones start smoking...

[ongyilkosist Posted Sep 22nd 2006 9:20PM]

Ha! I only smoke the finest: Dunhill

Please say it uses the Wacom digitizer, and not that FinePoint crap that gateway uses...

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 22nd 2006 10:53PM]

If it's got the Wacom system, I'm sold. LG, I hate you for making things sexier than all of my other electronics. My dell is seething with jealousy.

Holy crap that is shiny. I've been dying for a decent tablet pc, and if it has a nice video card, i'd highly consider this...

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 23rd 2006 7:34AM]

that is nice

The touch of Paul Mall is classy. Seems like I'm back in East Germany with my group of hacker buddies at around 2am ready to stock up an internet Cafe' with my Paul Malls working my way into the Pentagon's computers. So clock and dagger. That's way cool.

[trankzen Posted Sep 23rd 2006 9:33AM]

I don't see why it wouldn�t use Wacom's digitizer, since it's used in the LG LT20*

* LG's last gen Tablet PC, and incidentally the computer I'm typing this from. Very nicely built, good looking, light enough. If it's an indication of what LG is up to with the C1, it's going to be a killer.

does talon88 just have a sammy d900 or were those photos actually taken with a d900...?

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 25th 2006 3:17PM]

Whoa. THAT is sexy. I want one. Now. But no Paul Malls for me, I roll my own.
