The new NEC Tablet PC is out–at least in Japan. What sets the NEC Tablet PC apart is that it is only 11mm and 2lbs light.
The screensize looks the same–10.4″–although it looks like a wide-viewingangle display is incorporated this time. Cool. I’m finding a good display that works at a variety of angles while in Tablet mode is extremely important. Otherwise, you wind up hunching over the Tablet to get a good view as you write.
As might be expected, the processor is a midling 1.1GHz Pentium M. Considering the NEC’s ultra-thin formfactor there isn’t room for anything faster, hotter, or that consumes more battery power.
It’s also great to see that 802.11 a/b/g is covered.
