Congratulations to TabletKiosk.

Posted on 30 October 2006 by Chippy

Apparently, you’re doing the best job of promoting UMPCs - according to all 59 of my readers!

I’m surprised at the number of votes for Samsung and the lack of votes for Motion Computing. The LS800 was around (with DialKeys if I’m not mistakenIt was the P1510 that had dialkeys. Thanks Rob.) before the Origami UMPC.

More interesting though was the conversation that kicked off on the journal comments. Here are a select few.

Who’s promoting UMPCs the best? The blogosphere….

It seems as if all of the current influential promotion has come from the blogosphere!

..advertising in trade and consumer magazines, going out and speaking to IT people (roadshow for example.) These traditional seeding methods are things we just can’t do very easily from our keyboards.

…there is very little marketing going on other than what is being promoted by blogs, and consequently being picked up by larger pubs, mainstream media

Wow Chippy, it looks like you hit a raw nerve…

… I just wish that TK was also interested in getting their units into retail outlets and the hands of the general consumer

I think we’re all doing a great job and deserve UMPCs in our Christmas stockings.

Steve /Chippy.

    I don’t think the LS800 ever included DialKeys, as it is touch based software and the LS800 is not a touch screen.

    Having owned an LS800, I don’t recall ever seeing DialKeys pre-installed

    Yup. Thanks Rob.
    It was the 1510d that had dialkeys.
