FS (Aust): HP TC1100 hybrid tablet PCs (price drop)
Posted: Thu Oct 28, 2010 6:23 pm
I have a few HP/Compaq TC1100 Tablet PCs to sell. These are quite old, but have something of a cult following within Tablet PC circles for their unique hybrid form-factor. They're also somewhat popular among ThinkPadders, as the keyboard has a relatively good Trackpoint-style implementation, rather than a trackpad 
These can work both a 1.8kg convertible Tablet PC (with swivel display hinge), or detach the keyboard to make it a lighter 1.4kg slate Tablet PC.
Here is a basic review that goes through the essentials: http://www.tabletpc2.com/Review-HPTC1100.htm

I have three to sell, each of which is a slightly different spec and condition. All prices include platinum express postage to anywhere in Australia. I am happy to ship internationally (at postage cost) but for these laptops I'm not sure the postage charges (and high AUD) would make it worth your while.

Tablet #1
Condition: generally excellent, except for a light ~3cm scratch on the writing surface. Does not affect usability, nor is it visible when the LCD is in operation. Everything works AOK.

1.5GB RAM (1GB+512M)
60GB hard disk, 7200rpm
