Review of the 8 Hour Tablet: Electrovaya Scribbler

Lisa Gade, the chief geek over at MobileTechReview.com, reports that they've just published an in-depth review of the Electrovaya Scribbler SC2200. "It's a Windows XP Tablet Edition with lots of the features you'd expect on a high end slate machine like a 12.1" screen you can write on, a Dothan 1.4GHz processor and WiFi. But its real claim to fame is the huge capacity 10,200 mAh SuperPolymer battery which will get you through a work day without a charge."

Re:I remember seeing an ad for a MS Tablet PC

perhaps I should clarify that my notes are in the exact same format as my paper except digital. (and the ablity to resize the sheet of paper to fit the notes..) e.g. half scribbly notes. some weird math symbols, etc. (even the odd sketches) It would be a royal royal pain in the ass to use a standard PDA to take full page equivalent notes.

A multiproc desktop monster doesn't fit in the carry on compartment of an airplane.

I would use a tablet for all those things, but in a pinch, if I needed to fix something on site, I'd expect it to be able to churn out a working .exe once in awhile.

Don't be so friggin defensive.. Sheesh. You'd think this stupid little computer was your kid or something.
