Well given the number of existing tablets, touchscreen netbooks, UMPCs and so on, there's only one thing Apple is doing at the moment, and that is following.]]>Sep 15th 2009 2:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/hp-envy-13-and-15-bring-luxury-to-the-everyman-look-like-macboo/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/hp-envy-13-and-15-bring-luxury-to-the-everyman-look-like-macboo/
With all due respect (and I should clarify to say "not much"), perhaps you should wait to see what it is that Apple is working on, if anything, before passing judgement. This said, Apple very rarely comes out with an original product but rather they take concepts and make them work. This is definitely something that the Tablet PC could use since the whole thing has been a bit of a failure, for obvious reasons, outside of some very niche markets.

The less said about UMPCs the better, although they were appropriately named.

My thoughts exactly. For that price you can get the top spec MBP, a HyperMac external battery, and still have change.

But Apple's 15 inch pro goes for 1,700 so I've got to say that Envy 15 is one HELL of a value.( up to 16GB of DDR3!! )

It'll be interesting to see what Apple will do with its next revision, I just don't see Apple adding 4 ram slots ( maybe on the 17inch ).

Late 2009 MBP's can't come any sooner. Apple better make these machines killer or I'm switching back.

On the flipside, both Apple and Dell out-perform the HP's screen. The Apple covers 100% of sRGB IIRC and the Studio XPS 16's 1080p RGB LED option covers 100% covers even more. ]]>Sep 15th 2009 2:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/hp-envy-13-and-15-bring-luxury-to-the-everyman-look-like-macboo/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/hp-envy-13-and-15-bring-luxury-to-the-everyman-look-like-macboo/
The looks are killer. It sounds like the build quality is right up there. Speakers look very good on the 15" anyway, always a sore point with me. Assuming the display on the 15" has a 1080p option, I might just get one of these when it comes out.

Wow that's a great looking rig.

One of my pet peevees.

Whenever somebody claims a new notebook is a apple copy in looks as they get it wrong. Apple laptops are Sony copys in looks, as Sony has been doing this look for a longer time. When the apples current look came out I thought they were Sonys as they were so alike of what Sony had been doing for years.

So this laptop looks like a Sony, not apple.

Worst is whenever I somebody claims a Sony laptop is copying Apply looks. Its like claiming Fiat 127 copies Lada looks.]]>Sep 15th 2009 10:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/hp-envy-13-and-15-bring-luxury-to-the-everyman-look-like-macboo/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/hp-envy-13-and-15-bring-luxury-to-the-everyman-look-like-macboo/Sep 15th 2009 12:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/hp-envy-13-and-15-bring-luxury-to-the-everyman-look-like-macboo/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/hp-envy-13-and-15-bring-luxury-to-the-everyman-look-like-macboo/Sep 15th 2009 12:21AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/hp-envy-13-and-15-bring-luxury-to-the-everyman-look-like-macboo/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/hp-envy-13-and-15-bring-luxury-to-the-everyman-look-like-macboo/Sep 15th 2009 12:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/hp-envy-13-and-15-bring-luxury-to-the-everyman-look-like-macboo/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/hp-envy-13-and-15-bring-luxury-to-the-everyman-look-like-macboo/
