    Hey, what's this? That DigitalRise X9 tablet we've heard to much about has been reviewed -- on video, to boot! The Atom-packing, 2GB slate doesn't look nearly as iPad-esque as we'd been led to believe from previous photos, and the much-ballyhooed multi-touch functionality doesn't seem quite as snappy as we'd like, but who knows? Maybe you've got $800 in your pockets and an urge to do some stylus-based computing: hit the source link to get started. As for the rest of us, I'm sure we'll be satisfied watching the thing in action after the break.

    This one doesn't seem to have quite made it to CES, but DigitalRise's new X9 tablet is now available to order, and it packs just enough familiar features to fit right in with the pack. That includes a 10.2-inch multitouch display, an Atom N270 processor, 2GB of RAM, a 160GB hard drive, a 1.3-megapixel webcam, built-in 3G, GPS and WiFi, and Windows 7 for an operating system. Of course, availability is apparently limited to import shops at the moment, and this one doesn't exactly come cheap, with it running a hefty $780 -- although that is a $220 discount off its $1,000 list price.
