HP tx2000 Review - TabletPCReview
A review of the HP tx2000 Tablet PC has been posted over at Tablet PC Review. 'The tx2000 has a high-gloss HP exclusive Echo finish. Unlike its predecessor the lid is glossy black and has the Echo pattern, which also extends inside to the silver keyboard. Very sleek design, but it does get full of fingerprints. The overall design and chassis are still the same. The tx2000 feels solid and weighs in around 4.3 pounds, but it still has the same plastic housing which shows some signs of flex. It gets a little heavy to carry around in tablet mode, but it does come packed full of features and you can always substitute the weight saver in place of the optical drive.

On the surface this is a great tablet, a few quibbles, no programmable buttons on screen so when using photoshop or painter there is no quick access to copy, paste, select all or UNDO!! The pen is a bit small and cheap feeling. Very reflective which is a bit nonsensical, the batteries last no time at all, but the worst oversight is the processor can't handle pretty standard brushes, I waited a long time before buying a tablet even though my work necessitates one, with the wacom enabled pen and inbuilt goodies this does get the job done, though for the serious digital artists out there, don't get your hopes up. That said, it is good'n'cheap and probably the best option out there a.t.m, though your results won't be up to finished standards, it CAN get you away from the desk, just as long as there's is a power point somewhere.
Someone please make a REAL tablet pc!!!
