I ended up buying a nice 12" Thinkpad X40 of of Ebay for much less than an EEE 700.

You'd basically be an stupid early adopter if you buy at this stage. example is buying a EEE 900 when 901 and even 1000 is just around the corner.

This is supposed to be a tablet pc, right?

Do they want you to buy a stylus separate?]]>Jun 3rd 2008 9:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/
Based on the pics and the fact that there aren't pimping it as a tablet pc, its probably the latter unfortunately.]]>Jun 3rd 2008 10:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/
I always wanted a windows-capable (and Linux.... no prob) tablet mini-laptop. It is so elegant and I don't give a damn about power. 99.9% of the time I use my laptop, it's plugged in.

Perfect perfect perfect. I would have preferred WinXp but everyone says Vista's handwriting recognition is top-notch so I won't complain about that.

So my shopping list for the year is almost complete:

HTC Dream
M912 mini-laptop tablet
That megatron gaming monster pc]]>Jun 3rd 2008 9:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/Jun 3rd 2008 9:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/Jun 3rd 2008 9:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/Jun 3rd 2008 9:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/Jun 3rd 2008 9:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/http://www.umpcportal.com/2008/06/is-this-little-gem-a-new-raon-digital-umpc/

This is an image of an AMD-based device that has been shown at Computex. Its small, really small. One of the smallest I’ve seen with a full keyboard. It’s got a 7" touchscreen and its 1024×600. Its starting to look nice. AMD’s officials are saying its running Turion and that it’s 1.5 times the processing power of an Atom and will return 2.5hrs video-playback runtime. Its looking very interesting indeed. [Continued…]

....I think AMD's umpc is a much smaller/more capable umpc... it has a touchscreen as well, but too bad it doesn't pivot and become a tablet like the M912. But its SO small, you can extend the screen all the way and easily enjoy the touchscreen AND keyboard!]]>Jun 3rd 2008 9:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/Jun 3rd 2008 10:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/Jun 17th 2008 7:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/Jun 3rd 2008 10:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/Jun 3rd 2008 4:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/Jun 7th 2008 6:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/Jun 17th 2008 7:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/hands-on-with-gigabyte-m912-and-m724-convertible-mini-tablets/
