We posted about the launch of Dell's Latitude XT Tablet PC last night. I've been reading comments here and elsewhere about the launch and I'm not surprised at all with what everyone is saying: heaping praise on the weight and capacitive touch, but unanimously slamming it for a starting price...
When Microsoft and their partners launched Tablet PC five years ago, there was a lot of hope that new user interfaces and applications would be spilling out like ink from a fountain pen. Initial excitement was high among independent software vendors ( ISV ) to be among the first of a potentially explosive...
Warner wrote an excellent post this weekend about the lack of good note-taking on small mobile devices. He's absolutely correct. For the most part, I don't use a UMPC because of the vectoring issues. It is why I use an OQO Model 02 instead. Motion Computing's LS800 Tablet PC was the UMPC...
I've been watching Amazon's Kindle Demo video while impatiently waiting for UPS to deliver my Kindle . I've also purchased three books, while waiting, to see how Kindle handles the automatic download. Gadget arrival day will certainly try your patience. It struck me while watching the video...
I've been without a Tablet PC for the past several weeks as they have either been out on loan to friends or getting upgraded. So, I've been using my MacBook instead. I've gotten along swimmingly, except for the nagging need to want to take notes, sign PDF's, etc. Since Vista supports...

It wasn’t too long ago that I viewed mobility primarily through a Microsoft lense: smartphones, PDAs, mobile computers, web services, application software, etc. However, as I’ve been experimenting with different stuff the past year, I have found myself becoming more and more mobile platform agnostic...
The Tablet PC community is picking up on Dell's Tablet PC video that I posted this morning, and the words are not kind for Dell : James Kendrick says the trash talk is leaving a bad taste in his mouth, and some of his readers are seeing it as a foolish move. StudentTabletPC.com says that Dell shouldn't...
For the past ten days, I've been touring the wonderful world of Aspen Ridge Boy Scout Camp in Preston, Idaho with my son's Boy Scout Troop. We then took a whirlwind tour of Yellowstone, returning to Colorado Springs on Monday. Just prior to leaving for that trip, I received a Jury Summons with...
Maybe things are looking up as far as my Tablet PC Evangelism goes. Last weekend I wrote that I felt like I was being pretty lousy as a Tablet PC Evangelist because I was watching a steady stream of my employees choose non-Tablet PCs as their next mobile computers. Yesterday, I think I got some of my...
