your actually paying for quality materials, and construction, not pretty colors and rounded edges.

Can we we please quit it with this "Unibody Alumunium" bullshit. Its a piece of aluminum. Its been around for 100 years or so now, and the "Unibody" bullshit that you guys slather over more than Job's c**k just referrs to the fact that its milled out of one piece. Which, by the way, does not make it green, it makes it anti-green, because you could make it out of pieces with half the aluminum and half the machining = less consumption.

Now magnesium and rubbery plastic construction, with titanium strengthening, theres something thats actually a little new.]]>Sep 15th 2009 1:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/lenovo-introduces-multitouch-x200-tablet-and-t400s-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/lenovo-introduces-multitouch-x200-tablet-and-t400s-laptop/Sep 15th 2009 3:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/lenovo-introduces-multitouch-x200-tablet-and-t400s-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/lenovo-introduces-multitouch-x200-tablet-and-t400s-laptop/

I have an "old" x200 tablet, it was advertised as "multi-touch" but it didnt deliver :P i should sue for false advertisement. I payed $2200 for it dangg.

However, lenovo is a VERY good company with a good product, i still enjoy it. I hope they include nvidia ion on these too, i really hate the intel graphics crap.]]>Sep 15th 2009 1:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/lenovo-introduces-multitouch-x200-tablet-and-t400s-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/lenovo-introduces-multitouch-x200-tablet-and-t400s-laptop/- grab it while writing if right-handed

Shure that app pictured has nice big colorfull buttons, and even some kind of "swipe" it seems, but what is it for? Adjusting volume and whatnot? So this means now i can buy a thinkpad and play around with it all day, pretending to be an über cool DJ, swiping the volume up and down ...
And then i go to word, or excel, and realize that my fingers are not well suited for that.
so its back to playing DJ. *wipe* *wipe* *wipe*]]>Sep 15th 2009 3:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/lenovo-introduces-multitouch-x200-tablet-and-t400s-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/lenovo-introduces-multitouch-x200-tablet-and-t400s-laptop/
It's not as useful as the stylus in my opinion, but if speed and accuracy aren't critical then pretty much anything that can be done with the stylus can be done with the touchscreen, and it just feels a bit more natural. The only downside is getting fingerprints all over your screen.]]>Sep 15th 2009 4:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/lenovo-introduces-multitouch-x200-tablet-and-t400s-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/lenovo-introduces-multitouch-x200-tablet-and-t400s-laptop/Sep 15th 2009 4:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/lenovo-introduces-multitouch-x200-tablet-and-t400s-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/lenovo-introduces-multitouch-x200-tablet-and-t400s-laptop/Sep 15th 2009 10:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/lenovo-introduces-multitouch-x200-tablet-and-t400s-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/lenovo-introduces-multitouch-x200-tablet-and-t400s-laptop/

A lot of people gave up on the tablet ideas as you would expect your fingers to work the screen and for it to be sort of like on a portable GPS clicking buttons on the screen... just to no avial.
Using a pen on the Tablet takes time an practice and you kind of have to know what you are doing and accept the limitations.

Multitouch and Windows 7 are finally (hopefully) going to bridge this gap where the tablet is actually going to do what you think it should be doing. Sayng this though the interface will really have to change as everything on the market today has been designed with a mouse in mind and even the smallest of fingers are bigger then the tip of a pen or mouse cursor. If any of the Apple rumors are true we should be able to see the first kicks at the implementation of a usable interface where your fingers (not a mouse or a pen) that drive the screen.]]>Sep 15th 2009 8:36PM
