Odd, but none of the tablets I have used had a pen any thicker than my Parker.

Oh yea, I don't take notes with my finger and I certainly don't paint with it anymore either!]]>Apr 21st 2010 9:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/

This is an 11.6" device with a capacitive screen and a dual-core SU4100. It kicks around all the Atom-based netbooks, and on something that big, you're not going to be typing for hours anyway. It is, however, full Windows7 PC with a nice touchscreen for €600 from Amazon.de.

That is exactly what I want.... BUT, as intel mentioned, there will be dual core atoms coming out very soon and I will prefer to wait for those.]]>Apr 21st 2010 9:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/
You don't know what a Pentium is do you ? LOLz]]>Apr 21st 2010 11:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/
A Pentium is at least twice as fast as an Atom, dual core or not you guys all need to read up on CPUs.
A modern Pentium is just a C2D with less L2 cache, not a particularly noticeable performance difference clock for clock.

I want atom's small energy consumption and fan less "capabilities" since I am fed up of heating my balls with huge processors that I am barely using. If you promise me that with the pentium then I am happy to take that... Meanwhile, you dont need to hit your chest and squeak around that "everyone needs to read about processors"... I studied CS and I also know one thing or two about them.]]>Apr 21st 2010 12:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/
This processor is used because it has an excellent TDP for the performance, which allows them to use a smaller battery and heatsink for a lighter and lower profile device without making other sacrifices.

Unless the desire for the dual-core Atom was based on anticipated cost savings, I don't know why anyone would ask for that instead. o_O]]>Apr 21st 2010 12:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/Apr 21st 2010 12:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/Apr 21st 2010 12:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/Apr 21st 2010 12:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/Apr 21st 2010 1:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/Apr 21st 2010 1:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/

There is no stylus and digitizer?

In contrary to a certain religion, that's a fail for me...

Agree.
Even without a digitizer, a pen with some kind of software palm recognition (look at asus T101) would have been much appreciated.

For sure it's not "underpowered": CULVs are absolutely fine for these kind of tablets, you can't even compare them with an atom processor, and with 8 hours of battery life (I do get 10 with a SU7300 and 8-cell 5600mAh battery) it is a great all-day-computing machine.]]>Apr 21st 2010 11:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/Apr 21st 2010 11:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/Apr 21st 2010 11:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/Apr 21st 2010 12:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/Apr 21st 2010 11:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/

Differences between 1820PTZ and 1825PTZ aside, just in general. What makes you think the touchscreen technology has ANY effect on the NEED for a pen?

I'm not talking about underlaying technologies, capacitive + digitizer is win-win, both touch an pen technology are beter then resistive, but I am puzzled how anyone can think it would influence the need for a stylus at all?]]>Apr 21st 2010 12:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/acer-aspire-1825ptz-convertible-tablet-unboxed-for-your-pleasure/
