Very nice indeed! Again, mentions of keyboards for obvious targeting to the productivity-minded tablet user.
Thanks for posting! |

Wow, the more I look at that biz model, the more I like it. Maybe this one could really "work", so to speak...

Of the 3 tablets Lenovo plan to relase this fall I'm actually more interested in the IdeaPad Tablet with Windows 7. The reason for this is that Windows have a proven hand writing recognition software from before. So far as I know it's unmatched by any other.
IdeaPad Tablet P1 The flexible tablet features the power of Windows® 7 with the performance of Intel Inside®. Digitizer pen input for increased productivity Full Flash support so you can fully enjoy the internet USB and microSD http://shop.lenovo.com/us/products/tablets/ |

I don't think the other OSs are trying to compete in that area, the focus has been predictive text.
Coming from windows platform PDA and smartphone I too was a huge fan of hand recognition but after using predictive text technologies, I'm not so impressed with it. I can write it off as still not ready but the truth is I don't believe any technology will ever be able to read my chicken scratch. I recall the process was a three step process: write, recognize, fix recondition errors. The last step is what took the longest based on how bad the recognition was. In the end I started using the one character at a time recognition, but it's not nowhere hear as fast as predictive text. The power of Windows 7 is that it's designed for real computing and will have a more multitasking support than the other OSs. None of this silly apps run in maximized screen mode. |
