Looking for THE X tablet

#1 Post by Rhino » Wed Apr 04, 2007 6:25 pm

I've been away since my last serious of posts, fixes, and discoveries on my last thinkpad..

NOW, I want to get a new one, THE BEST teblet possible. Here is what I need:

-Light wieght
-LONG battery life
-Note taking by hand is HUGE for me
-Very cool, not overheating
-No fan noise
-High performance

With that being said, I really respect you guys and your opinions. Can you give me advice as to which model (maybe a link to) that is the best choice for me?

Thank you sincerely :)

These two requirements are mutually exclusive. The tablet with the longest battery life is the X60 tablet with an 8-cell battery, but that weighs up to 4.6 lbs. The lightest tablet is the X41 tablet with a 4-cell battery (3.5 lbs), but the battery lasts for less than 3 hours.

The X60 tablet is much faster than the X41 tablet because the latter has a slow, unupgradeable 4200rpm hard drive.

Bottom line: If you think 4.6 lbs is light enough, get the X60 tablet with 8-cell battery.
