T43 First Impressions

#1 Post by fbrdphreak » Wed Apr 27, 2005 11:05 am

Hey all,
Just wanted to let you know that I have posted my first impressions on the T43 that IBM sent me for review. I will be doing a full, in-depth review in the coming weeks. There will also be a T43 vs T42 comparison article. I wish I could have this stuff out already, but being a full time college student kind of limits that.
If anyone has any questions or comments about the T43 or my article, please feel free to post it here, PM, or e-mail me. Comments, questions, even snide remarks :P are welcome
Thanks!

I would like to invite anyone here to head over to http://www.laptoplogic.com/giveaway and enter to win a free Microsoft mouse. You just have to answer a couple of quick questions, you will never get any spam, and it will GREATLY help us out. We're just a little fish in the sea, but we've got the quality needed to grow into a big fish. We just need your help! :) Thanks and please let me know if you have any questions

How can you tell if you have a Chinese keyboard or a Thai keyboard? Can you request one or the other?

I like the pictures, and I can't wait for the T42/T43 comparison :)

Unfortunately my final exams are taking place over the next two weeks (Stupid Computer Engineering classes :cry: ), so I hope to have it posted shortly thereafter. I will be working on it bit by bit during exam time and will give a big push right after exams to get it out.

If any of you take a look at our other reviews, like the HP dv1000 written by me ;), you will see that we pay a lot of attention to detail. The kind of detail that I think forum members here will appreciate :) Let me know if you have any other questions
Nice preview fbrdphreak.
Thanks :)
