This review is from: Compaq TC1000T Tablet PC 470045-149 (1.0 GHz Transmeta Crusoe, 256MB RAM, 30GB hard drive) (Personal Computers)

I am an Apple freak, I have about 4 different Macintosh systems and swore off anything Windows related. Since Apple hasnt made a Tablet Computer, I bought the Compaq TC1000 after much research. It is, without a doubt, one of the most clever computing platforms i have ever used. Heres the good:
1) Speech recognition: Its unreal, like magic. I was able to talk into my AOL instant messenger and *viola*! Not perfect, but neither is my typing!
2) Handwriting recognition: My handwriting is nearly illegible, no problem with the TC1000. Really impressive.
3) Lightweight and portable. So I get it home and start to play with it, when i realize that the keyboard detaches and it is literally half as bulky as i thought! It is way too cool, youve got to try it.
4) Powerful. Yeah, its fast and fun.
5) 802.11 included. And it works, even with my macintosh Airport setup...

Which brings me to the bad:
Though I can network with the Tablet, it keeps dropping the network like every 3 minutes. We are trying to figure it out with Compaq and Apple, I am not sure yet about how to fix it, im confident we will soon.

So thats that. I love it, and hope you will too...

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Tablet by far, August 22, 2003

This review is from: Compaq TC1000T Tablet PC 470045-149 (1.0 GHz Transmeta Crusoe, 256MB RAM, 30GB hard drive) (Personal Computers)

Pros: Stylish, long battery-life,good pen, good networking. I have hammered my unit to now for two months and that includes dropping it nearly two feet on concrete. t am very happy with it. A brilliant entry into Tablet computing.

Cons: It is a little slow but then I run an Access database, outlook, blue tooth connection with my mobile phone, and multi-megabyte PDF files simultaneously on the supplied RAM. This I will upgrade but not urgently. The keyboard is not the greatest but then I don't use it; but lets face it, there isn't the room for a bigger one, so whats the point in marking it down for it?
