...suspect you will see Apple come out with something like this pretty soon.

Windows Tablet: a gimped failure doomed to be crippled out of the starting gate - Sydwyndir, 06-19-2012 00:48 (Views: 64; Replies: 44)

I don't know. If it has decent stylus support and you can ACTUALLY draw on it.. I'm in [nt] - pooka, 06-19-2012 20:15 (Views: 20)

Oh, and tether it to my camera vs iPad+laptop. [nt] - pooka, 06-19-2012 20:16 (Views: 30)

Now that I think about it... fuck Apple all around. I hate Windows but - pooka, 06-19-2012 20:22 (Views: 39)

My negro. If you needs tips, I gots 'em.[nt] - Paul, 06-19-2012 22:32 (Views: 27)

Would these happen to be.........whistle tips? [nt] - Phred, 06-19-2012 22:52 (Views: 25)

this has zune vs iPod written all over it. round 2? [nt] - Tendenzi, 06-19-2012 14:49 (Views: 25)

Yeah, I said "ZunePad" yesterday. I dunno. Just seems like they're late to the party here. - Paul, 06-19-2012 16:44 (Views: 33)

Probably late for the appliance users. Not so much for office/business users. - Phred, 06-19-2012 17:10 (Views: 37)

I dunno. Most enterprise environments have gotten a handle on how to manage iOS devices. - Paul, 06-19-2012 17:40 (Views: 38)

I'm with you on the people who already bought. - Phred, 06-19-2012 17:42 (Views: 31)

Office has been handled on iOS too, QuickOffice, Documents to Go, etc. - Tendenzi, 06-19-2012 18:56 (Views: 35)

It's not Office. [nt] - enet, 06-19-2012 22:28 (Views: 29)

phew, thank you for that clarification. - Tendenzi, 06-19-2012 22:36 (Views: 35)

With a Windows tablet, you get proper Office - enet, 06-19-2012 23:03 (Views: 28)

Main thing for business is that it makes the business case for iPads much more difficult. - enet, 06-19-2012 23:15 (Views: 34)

Oh what you meant was "It's not WINDOWS" above, not Office. Silly. - Tendenzi, 06-19-2012 23:12 (Views: 29)

The only thing that is purely Windows there regards printing, which you brought up. [nt] - enet, 06-19-2012 23:32 (Views: 26)

It is just like saying Paint.NET or Gimp == Photoshop [nt] - Ordeith, 06-19-2012 22:42 (Views: 24)

and for most people, it is. So what? [nt] - Tendenzi, 06-19-2012 22:45 (Views: 30)

So if you could run a full featured photoshop and illustrator on a tablet, would you? - Ordeith, 06-19-2012 22:49 (Views: 25)

no. [nt] - Tendenzi, 06-19-2012 22:51 (Views: 30)

Your loss I guess, all the "artists" I know are excited at the prospect. - Ordeith, 06-19-2012 22:53 (Views: 28)

battery life, performance concerns; these tablets aren`t the best for that yet. - Tendenzi, 06-19-2012 22:57 (Views: 32)

oh and before you or enet get into it with me, please note the following: - Tendenzi, 06-19-2012 22:48 (Views: 33)

Well...yeah, sorta. I'm sure it mostly works. - Phred, 06-19-2012 19:04 (Views: 36)

I only saw it at a glance, but it seems somewhat compelling. - Phred, 06-19-2012 05:03 (Views: 48)

I wonder where they got the idea from? Truly innovative. :) [nt] - Progressivebreaks, 06-19-2012 13:50 (Views: 33)

Clearly Apple. They invented the tablet computer. They invented everything, really. :) [nt] - Phred, 06-19-2012 13:54 (Views: 25)

pretty sure I used a tablet computer in '06 - Glenn, 06-19-2012 14:43 (Views: 41)

Didn't Microsoft try to market a tablet a while back ... - Catfish, 06-19-2012 16:52 (Views: 33)

WAF! - Phred, 06-19-2012 14:57 (Views: 41)

had a cool CAD program that was made for pen imput - Glenn, 06-19-2012 22:29 (Views: 28)

that's just your imagination! [nt] - Tendenzi, 06-19-2012 14:46 (Views: 28)

Some might think that :p [nt] - Glenn, 06-19-2012 14:50 (Views: 35)

Just saw the keyboard this morning, now I get it. - Paul, 06-19-2012 12:57 (Views: 37)

TouchCover or TypeCover? Or you saw both? There isn`t "the keyboard", there are two. [nt] - Tendenzi, 06-19-2012 13:46 (Views: 42)

OIC. Honestly just skimmed engadget. This device doesn't interest me at all. [nt] - Paul, 06-19-2012 14:02 (Views: 31)

just curious which one or if you thought both, Apple would emulate. [nt] - Tendenzi, 06-19-2012 14:10 (Views: 34)

Oh sorry. The softouch keyboard one that looked like it had actual keys.[nt] - Paul, 06-19-2012 16:42 (Views: 25)

I look forward to them inventing another innovation. :) [nt] - Phred, 06-19-2012 13:45 (Views: 28)

I like it as well. Need to play with one a bit. - Glenn, 06-19-2012 12:10 (Views: 40)

Taking it kind of hard, aren't you? [nt] - Bean, 06-19-2012 03:40 (Views: 28)

Not in the least. I'll use my UMPC to keep my Windows 8 Tablet warm. [nt] - Sydwyndir, 06-19-2012 04:35 (Views: 25)

This seems to be a minority opinion. [nt] - enet, 06-19-2012 02:27 (Views: 45)
