x60 non-tablet with sxga+ ?

#1 Post by odegard » Sun Jan 07, 2007 9:04 am

I was this -> <- far from ordering a x60s the other day, when I happened upon this forum and saw someone mentioning sxga+.

From what I've gathered, only the x60t has the option of sxga+ now... do anyone think "regular" x60's will have that option too in the future?

I was really worried about the XGA screen when I bought my X60s. Now that I have it, though, I wouldn't want to run a higher resolution than 1024*768.

But that is just my opinion.

Yes, and that's the reason I don't think we'll see sxga+ on x60s'... *I* wouldn't mind a higher resolution, but 99% of the rest of the world seem to mind, and that's not a good business strategi, to cater for 1%, so I guess x60t was an experiment? Perhaps a table need better resolution for tablet-things?

Any reason why you'd need higher resolution on a tablet pc than a laptop?

Vertical orientation mode. I'd guess that 100% of X60/s users don't turn their machine on its side and re-orient the graphics output.
