Boat or boot?

Yeehaaw Gimme Ma Multi-Touch
It's a firmware update; the hardware capability was (always) there but needed the embedded code to be updated.
my iPhone is better and has multitouch for more than a year :)
So i am assuming your iphone can also edit Documents, Power points, Excels sheets?
I am also assuming it can connect to a projector and do a presentation in front of a business audience?
I am also assuming that you iphone can hold more than 64gb of Music/Documents/Media files?
What am i thinking... That's a lot of assumptions for one tiny phone that cannot even copy and paste and provide a decent push mail service tools for business oriented consumers
Your iPhone is better? I seriously doubt that, you prick.
"ok you fools just compared a high powered laptop to a mobile phone :)"
No, YOU compared it to a phone... what's your attention span, 3 seconds? Didn't know goldfish used iphones... :S
Look, if an iphone fulfills all your (computing) needs, good for you, but most people still need real computers, so stop being a troll...
Seriously, if you want a multi-touch computer for real, get one of the high-end Mac notebooks.
And no, your iPhone is not better when it can *not* handle copy and paste, prepaid, stereo Bluetooth, voice dialing or recording, computer tethering, Flash, Java (although it can handle JavaScript), most streaming audio and video, MMS, disk mode, Office files, iChat, video recording, advanced settings, over-the-air software updates, FireWire, turn-by-turn directions, more than 16GB of stuff (probably less because of the OS itself), or Skype, plus *requires* a $30/month data plan, and lacks customisability.
Aww, if it worked on all tablet PCs it would be sweet, but really multitouch isn't that great, especially on a tablet PC. The size makes touch kind of useless in my opinion. Wacom pens ftw!
Unlike some fruity companies...
They said it was coming, if anything it's late.
"Multitouch" was subtly present in the selling deal of the Lat XT as a "future feature"..
You guys really don't get out of your hipster NYC pads, do you.
;)
The 128 GB SSD mentioned days ago is still not available as an option!
This is Dell we're talking about ....if I'm not mistaken! Some of the commenters just can't get over the iPhone 3G buzz can they? pretty bad hobby!!
Dell =/ [Is NOT Equal] Apple --> atleast last time I checked
!= != =/
As a Houstonian, I don't appreciate your stereotype comments....
Just kidding, I ride my hourse to work everyday. Damn gas prices are so high you have to.
is it possible to work on HP tx2500 tablet
This wont work on any other notebook. The notebook has to have a compatible capacitive touch screen. Not a normal resistive touchscreen.
