HP has leaked some info on the upcoming Slate tablet, details here, and how it matches up with Apple’s ipad. I’m interested in seeing how it performs, but could be a nice alternative to the ipad.
Hp Slate will probably be doing a last minute change of the OS. It is rumor that HP will be dropping Microsoft 7 OS from their Slate device. WebOS (most likely) will be their operating system of choice. Last heard is that HP was NOT happy with the performance of Microsoft 7 as a touch screen device. With HP purchasing Palm recently and with it came WebOS, it seems only likely that HP will be using WebOS as their OS for the Slate. HP may also be dropping the Intel processor for something “LESS POWER HUNGARY”. If they go to the new OS they won’t need the Intel processor and thus will gain a few more hours of battery life. Something that they were hammered on in hands on testing.
I've read over a number of your blog entries and I was thinking about if you were interesting in swapping website links? I am usually seeking to switch links with personal blogs about very similar subject matter! I look forward to hearing back from you soon.
