MSI Wind Sliding Tablet Mod – Videos

Posted by ts On 05.02.2010

Early this week, netbooked.net discovered a new tablet mod brewing on the Insanely Wind forums. The modder’s plans are to mod his Advent 4211c (MSI Wind U100 clone) into a slate tablet with a sliding pull down keyboard. He now has a bunch of videos up showing off his work, still a WIP though.

The videos show off Windows 7 and OS X use with a stylus (single touch resistive touch screen) and progress on the sliding mechanism for the pull down keyboard.

One example showing off OS X:

Fujitsu LifeBook T900 tablet PC

Posted by ts On 03.02.2010

The FCC spoiled the surprise on this one back in December, but Fujitsu has now finally gotten official with its new LifeBook T900 tablet PC, which is available with your choice of Core i5-520M, 540M, or Core i7-620M processors. Otherwise, you can expect the same 13.3-inch display found on the company’s earlier T5010 tablet, along with a standard 2GB of RAM and 160GB hard drive, integrated Intel graphics, and a DVD burner — not to mention some niceties like a fingerprint scanner, ambient light sensor, and even a user-cleanable dust filter. This one’s shipping right now with prices starting at $1,889.

MSI dualscreen e-reader

Posted by ts On 27.01.2010

The all metal device is about the size of a netbook and it actually felt quite heavy in our hand. On the inside of the dual 10-inch, capacitive multitouch screens work like extended displays and we were able to drag windows from one screen to the other. The entire thing was a bit flaky since it’s obviously running some beta software, but the digital keyboard was easy to pull up and had a haptic-like feedback when we started typing on the bottom screen. The whole thing is pretty damn awesome for a very early build, and the fact that MSI actually plans to bring it to market within the year is pretty unbelievable.
