Vista 64-bit SP1 upgrade underway

Lo and behold this afternoon Windows Update informed me that SP1 for 64-bit Vista Ultimate was available for the evaluation HP tx2000 Tablet PC and it's downloading now. I'm going to install it and see if maybe the missing Microsoft application support has been addressed. Keep your fingers crossed.

Gotta love FedEx! The Fujitsu P1620 only left Japan yesterday but according to the tracking it's almost in my hot little hands: Brief video to follow it's arrival. :)

Additional accessories for the P1620 on the way today

OK, I'm still waiting for the delivery of the Fujitsu P1620, in fact right now I don't know when it might arrive. When it didn't arrive on Wednesday of this week I called Fujitsu and they said it shipped that day and would arrive today, Friday. They also told me...

Building a new system- a jkOnTheRun primer

So what is multi-touch?

Ryan Block of engadget is telling us that Dell is admitting their new XT Tablet PC will not have multi-touch for a while. The new Dell is certainly capable of registering multiple finger touches at the same time since it uses the same capacitive digitizer technology that Apple uses in...

Did the slate UMPC die and nobody notice?

On a recent episode the two MobileTechRounders (Kevin Tofel and Matt Miller) and I had an unplanned discussion about the dearth of slate UMPCs being produced currently and that discussion touched a nerve with some bloggers involved in the mobile tech scene. That's understandable as the death of the slate...

Vista Tablet PC rocks!

Got a few minutes before my meeting starts so I'm sitting in the lobby using my Tablet PC to check email, RSS feeds and to blog. This is the major thing that Vista does very well so kudos to the folks at Microsoft for a great job with the Tablet...

XP is back on Miyagi- XP 1 -Vista O

The mess that Vista SP1 made of Miyagi, my Fujitsu P1610, just got worse and worse. I was getting a BSOD every 10 minutes or so and Miyagi was totally unusable as a result. It was evident I was going to have to rebuild the Fuji to get rid of...

The docking station has arrived

The FedEx guy just dropped off the package from HP and sure enough it contained the docking station, er, the expansion base, for the HP 2710p Tablet PC I am so impatiently patiently waiting for. The reason for this post is to point out that unlike I've seen posted in...

Fujitsu P1610 offers 32 GB SSD on the cheap, only $299

I have to wonder if SSD prices are about ready to tumble. I was just checking to see if an integrated 3G radio was available yet for the Fujitsu P1610 (it's not, at least in the U.S.) when I eye-spied a 32 GB SSD option for the Fuji. The availability...

Using multiple devices intelligently

I am in a unique position in that I get to play work with many different gadgets. As a true gadget freak I pinch myself every day. As fortunate as I am using so many different devices can be tricky sometimes and I feel I have a good system that...

Are you being Vistamized on your mobile PC?

Let's face the facts, Vista doesn't run very well on mobile PCs. There, I've said it. If you have a mobile PC, a notebook, Tablet PC, UMPC or ultra-portable PC, chances are you know exactly what Im talking about. It is commonplace for users to take drastic measures to get...
