Oh well, I've bought the Evo TC1000 and all I have to muck about this 'gadget' is that the whole handwriting recog stuff is not usable under linux thus I removed the 2nd partition again to let windoze rule the world again. But beware thou the cpu is only 1.0 GHz its more than adequate for the office job. In fact I bought this thing for university because typing on notebooks is not fully accepted (its disturbing) and the handwriting has often replaced my old school paper block. Thou I'd wish there would be more applications supporting the digital ink stuff - I know wrong place to charm pro MickeySoft, and I completely agree that the Apple Newton was better so MS did a poor job implementing the bought Newton tech. but after like 2 month of using this thing I'd say its pricy and the promised 5 hours of battery time must have been measured with static reading or typing (wireless off, harddrive off, and the gf2go chip on powersave too) Still I feel very comfortable with my Tablet PC just because technology has gotten much better. This thing is clearly nothing for surfing the net (typing url even with the PocketPC graffity stuff is hard) but you'll always have your keyboard slide in when you need to type faster or more text at once. and for all those who happen to have a TC 1000 I speak from heart - never ever unplugg the damn keyboard - the Tablet PC under normal use gets quite warm, but then again its weight of only 1.6kg if you handle the thing correctly is like a charming touch to the holding hand ;-) Go on and flame,... I just could not resist after I got hold of a promotional Example I got addicted to it. But I'd love to join some linux group working on a Linux Tablet Edition with an even better recognition kernel.
