is it possible to use this as a drawing device? ala, a portable wacom cintiq? i have a cintiq but it requires hooking up to an existing pc. how is the ink/writing/drawing using the stylus for this device?

i also own the archos 705 wifi 7″ screen. unfortunately, archos locked that device down hard. i want to be able to run my own app from my pc. i hope archos doesn’t put some sort of serial lock on the archos 9 device that prevent users from installing their own application or changing out the operating system.

this and the x-mode tablet look awesome. it’s going to be an exciting year for umpc.

Know what you mean about 7 and its resources (never seen anything work better) but I’m refering to the acual ablity of the GPU to kick out DirectX 10 graphics .

Archos 7 look nice. Yes, it will be release in Europe. What about release in USA? When? I want to know…

Thank you,

if it is low, then you will need a keyboard and there will be no weight advantages in comparison to Eee T91

thank you! 10mm, OMAP3 and up to 500Gb specs were announced in March
but where did you find about 150gm?

The battery life is what I am worried about this device. I’m skeptical that with a larger screen and thinner build and only a 200gram difference (assuming it weighs the full 800 grams) from the X70 if it will have 5+ hours video play. Well written drivers may make the difference. Well, I guess if you look at the S5 to X70 weight difference, 260 grams, maybe it is possible.

Anybody else interested in how a specific T91 (supposedly resistive screen) demonstrated multitouch with Windows 7 and how this device will have multitouch with Windows 7 and a resistive screen also?

I’m guessing 500 Euros will get you the base, non-3G enabled model. Isn’t that a bit expensive considering that this is just a netbook with a touchscreen but no keyboard?
