Live session Tuesday, 15th Sept: Convertible Touchscreen Shootout.

Posted on 10 September 2009 by



JKKMobile and UMPCPortal are pleased to announce a special live hands-on, demo and Q&A session next Tuesday, 15th of September. The Convertible Touchscreen Shootout!

convertibles-live

Following the Archos event in Paris (1800 Paris time) we’ll be live to give you a hands-on overview and a chance to ask questions about the new Viliv S7 that is on it’s way here from Korea and to show you three other convertible touchscreen solutions. The Asus Eee PC T91, the Kohjinsha SK3 and the Gigabyte Touchnote T1028M. Also on-hand will be the Fujitsu U2010/U820 (recently upgraded with a Runcore Pro IV SSD) and the Kohjinsha SC3. We’ll also be contacting owners to ask for their opinion on the devices and inviting them to join us in the live session so that you can get a well-balanced opinion on all of the devices.

The session will open from about 1900 GMT (8pm London, 9pm Berlin, 3pm New York. Check your local time here.) with live video from JKK and Chippy and the usual open chat session. We expect the session to last for about two hours. Join us in the usual place….

    hi chippy. sounds good, i havnt been able to catch a live session for a while. im actually writing this on the beginnings of my hp mini 1000 tablet(not convertible though). its going to be my first tablet, so some info on what really makes a good one should be very useful for my project. so im in london….are we kicking off at 7 or at 8(im pretty sure london time is gmt)? d

    Chippy Reply:

    London is currently gmt +1 due to daylight savings. 8pm for you!

  6. DARIUS says:

    oh yea,duh. thanx chippy, i’ll talk to u then. have a good evening. bed time for me

  7. Judge says:

    Could the Zoomstorm Fizzbook Spin be added to the list as well please.
    I think this is a really interesting machine as although its aimed at
    children it seems to be a match specwise for most of the other convertiables
    on the market plus it is noticebly cheaper. I would be interested to know
    peoples opinion on it.

    ps. link to it below

    Chippy Reply:
