Post Subject: A new spin on tablets
Posted on: Feb 9, 2011

It wouldn't be worth calling it the year of the tablet without some new innovations. HP is enhancing a feature of theirs to start working with two way communication on certain cell phones. I personally admit, I love this idea. I think we all know that most tablets are portable, but they aren't exactly mobile, and cell phones are more and more becoming our common way to use the web, so creating a way to have a smooth transition between devices, is a great idea. If anyone remembers videos of the Microsoft Surface, this might seem a little familiar!

I've seen people make similar devices out of a home made projector(using a LCD display) and a Wii remote. If you look at the HP TouchSmart desktop AIO systems, they use a very similar design. Its all using infrared to do the tracking.

I still think my favorite custom surface system was the flex one.

no faceless im also yet to witness the application in person. very upsetting. back to topic, this is my input as far as tablet pc... you should be forewarned i have a slight affection for hp/
hp touch tablet

i personally think using your cell to get online is stupid, but im aware that im fighting a losing argument. id still take a desktop over anything portable, and a laptop over an netbook or mini. ill come out of y cave when britney spears is deemed a fit parent.
