Nice! Even better presentation than the official one released yesterday.
I really like it. I've seen MS are getting some stick for it on some of the blog sites comments, but I think it's awesome.
I love the idea of the iPad - it's a touch friendly tablet. I don't like that it's a mobile OS.
So this ticks all the boxes:
1. It's a full powered OS
2. It can run properly on a tablet (with ARM support)
3. It's designed for touch - WP7 interface.
4. But it also has a "real" (i.e. Windows 7) interface as well, for those times you might want to put it on a desk and whack a keyboard and mouse with it.
Looks great and makes me thankful I didn't buy an iPad 2 or an Android tablet. Just wish it'd be out quicker lol.

Looks sweet. If they can tailor the "desktop" experience a little bit more towards touch I think I'll be sold on a tablet.

From what I've been able to read so far since the unveiling, it sounds like Microsoft is going to push the new interface as the default, and the old Win7 interface only for legacy apps. In other words, they want the WP7-like tile interface to be the Windows standard on all devices - phones, tablets, notebooks, and desktop PCs. For example, it is being designed to work in both a touch and keyboard/mouse environment. And, they are going to push for new versions of major 3rd party apps to be written to use the new interface, and not work with the old.
Whether they will succeed remains to be seen, but based on my WP7 user experience over the past 6 months, I think it just might work.

They definitely need a metro skin option for the desktop experience--if I'm using this new touch interface, I don't ever want to see the aero design clashing with it. Beyond that obvious gripe, I love it.
I will buy it on Day 1 of its release.
I like it. Just wondering if homescreen will have wallpapers or Start screen is actual homescreen...
It's too early to tell (much could change over the next year), but it looked like the Start screen is the home screen, at least in terms of it being the screen that will appear when you boot/log in to your PC. The current Windows 7 desktop will be more of an "app" that loads when needed.
I think you can change which one it goes to by default. Almost positive but I will try to find a verification.
Don't see how this pertains to windows "phone". As it totally looks like Media Center on crack. Laggy as hell, dont know if it was the video, or the person holding the camera. Jerk, jerk, jerk. Maybe I need to see another video.
I like the touch screen windows 7 by HP, with HPs touch friendly design on top, looked good and performs great.
Is this windows 8 or just the tablet OS?
It is Windows 8. Although one obvious application for it will be tablets, it is going to be the same OS on tablets, laptops, and desktops.
Although this was an early build (given that the OS won't be released until next year), there was zero lag in the demo. Any problems you saw were the fault of the person recording the video. I've seen about 8 other videos, and they are all just as smooth as the WP7 start screen.
As far as this not pertaining to Windows Phone, on one hand I agree, but on the other, it pertains very much. After watching the videos a few more times, I think this could create quite a bit of interest in WP7, thanks to the nearly identical UI.

Think it's Windows 8 for all PC's. At the end they mention something to that end. Not sure how it'd work when most PC's don't have touch screens & those that do are mostly the wannabe Laptop, all-in-one PoS's that are way over priced compared to a normal desktop. Would be nice if they started mass producing regular monitor with touch screen including the ultra high end like the 30" that supports 2560 x 1600 resolution.

And Windows 8 and the tablet OS are one and the same. Its the same thing on tablets as it is on desktops, with slight variances on how it interacts based on the device.

Does HP make a Windows 7 tablet?
I believe hp is committed to webos on all their toys. The only thing that holds me back from a tab is developing compatibility. I would love have a windows 8 tab as long as it has usb ports. Port for flashing a phone via executable file or using command prompts for rooting purposes. Then I would be able to give my kids my laptop. I haven't checked out the videos yet, but I will.

That's a tough call. I was thinking the same thing. Finally I bought the TF300 reasoning that:
1) Win RT tablets are still months away
2) Even when the first ones are released, it may well be a few more months before a manufacturer releases one I really like
3) Even then, it will be a few more months before there's a critical mass of decent applications for the platform.
So all in all I'm guessing 18 months to two years before Windows 8 tablets are truly attractive propositions, and by that time I'll probably be itching to update anyway, so I'll be able to re-consider the direction I want to go in at the time.

What is it about windows that is so attractive though? As in, what can you do on a windows tablet that you can't on Android?
2. What do you think, the Dell inspiron duo or this?

I had the same question a week ago.
My girlfriend needed a "portable office" and the question was: Notebook or Notebook.
But then I told her there is a tablet with keyboard dock and listed some advantages, because she already have a Samsung Galaxy Ace.
And that it is possible to connect external volumes like USB sticks or drives.
Now she uses the TF300T about a week and is still satisfied.
All she has to do is to write some things in Word and a little bit Powerpoint. All this is done very well with OfficeSuite Pro.
Additionally she has to transfer some pictures, e-mails and surfing the net.
No need for Windows.
Now she can sync her calendar very very easy, has her contacts everywhere and can manage them easily, and can use the same payed apps as she bought for her Galaxy Ace.
My job is done.
You should just think about what you do most.
If you want to play some games which are windows only, okay. But you don't have already a PC at home?
Do you have special applications which are windows only?
Android is much smoother than windows. It's faster because it's not overloaded with things normal humans wouldn't need.
Additionally no idea about the battery lifetime. Notebooks have much less and I assume, Windows 8 tablets won't work as long as an Android tablet.
Thanks for the reply!

At this point, nothing, because there aren't any Windows RT tablets to compare to. So it's all speculative, on my part.
However, I would expect to find a very robst and well implemented web brower and a robust and well implemented Office suite as well as good Windows networking and printing.
The emergence of Chrome on Android makes the first point much less of an issue. I've been using Chrome on the TF300 and really, really like it. Heck, I've also found that Opera on my TF300 behaves much better than it does on my HTC Flyer.
But I'm still waiting for a decent Office suite. There are some OK ones out there, getting better by the day. I do like Office Suite Professional. But some pretty important features are missing (for insatnce, the ability to create multi-columned documents).
The big appeal of Windows 8 being on tablets is compatibility. There will be Metro Apps and regular Windows 8 apps. Metro Apps are gonna be for mobile devices like your tablet and your home PC.
With Windows 8 your old x86 PC applications won't run on your tablet, but your new Metro apps should be compatible with your PC and tablet. So if I'm playing a game on my tablet, I go home, I can sync up and continue playing on my PC. That's a very cool options to have. I'm using an app to work on a project on my tablet, I can jump right into the same application, with the same interface, and continue at my desk.
It's one step closer to blurring the line between a home PC and mobile devices.
Hi everyone,
I'm actually looking for a 7 inch tablet to have a real portable device aside my Transformer. I was surfing the web a bit to find one and I was surprised to see that there are very few 7 inch tablets out there
The Nexus 7 will not be available in my country before october et november and the Iconia A110 will not be sold here at all...
So my question is : Is it still worth buying a gtab 2.0 ? I can have one for 259 € (16Gb Wifi only) at my reseller but I'm wondering if it will fit my needs... ? Mostly web browsing, ebooks reading, music and a bit of gaming (android games and emulators).
Is it comfortable to read on it with the 1024*600 resolution ? Is the browsing experience good enough ?
Thanks in advance for your advices

Yep, will do all those things without any problems I installed the firefox nightly and its pretty decent for web browsing. Read a few books on it and I dont personally have any issues with it at all.
If you cant hold out till the Nexus 7 then this is probably your best bet. Although honestly for your needs, might be worth holding out for it.
I use Moon+ for ereading and Chrome for the browser. Love it.

The only place you may have issues is that some games aren't compatible with the device stock. I use it for reading, web browsing, and twitter, and have no issues at all with any of them.
So far I'm finding the tap 2 7" fits my needs just fine. Still seams like a good buy for the price.

for sure go for it.it is handy.browsing is smooth use firefox or chrome.ebook reading will also be a good experience use quickoffice,moon reader,ezreader or polaris.
And even the games like shadowgun works like charm so your 3rd criteria is also staisfied so go for it...
I agree with them too.It is a very nice little tab,of course there will be better,like anything else in life. I find it pretty complete,and like Droidlover123 is saying very useful,though it comes with a spotty wifi for some of us,but I also recommend it.
Go ahead and get this baby,besides that microsd cards are dirt cheap so you can upgrade in a heartbeat.You will have everything in one spot. :good:
Thank you all for your advices :good:
I am still hesitating as I just saw some Nexus 7 tablets for sale on ebay for 300$...

The reason i have not updated yet. May update then when im home go to cm9
I think I am getting used to it,I updated and it is smoother and snappier now.As for the wifi I am having the same glitches I had before and not everyday.
One more thing,since I purchased the case it seems to work better because I don't cover with my hand as much as I used to,so at this point I would recommend the purchase and the update.Love this baby.

Every tablet and smartphone can be used with an aftermarket smartphone pen.
If you are talking about a real digitizer, our note 10.1 is the only device that has this feature at the moment.
I believe he means with an active digitizer like you mentioned. I was just looking into this myself. I use the ipad and the application on it called myScript Notes which has pretty good handwriting recognition in a variety of languages However, I hate a capacitive stylus because its so fat and inaccurate. There are a few add-on active digitizers for the ipad but they are all really no good. The Galaxy Note 10.1 and the Lenevo Thinkpad Tablet both have active styluses. And low and behold, one of the Lenevo's main features was this myScript app that I wanted. But I don't think the Lenevo is supported any more nor the handwriting app updated. The Galaxy Note 10.1 has the s-pen app but its recognition and features pale to myScript Notes. Now for me, there is good news and bad news.: The good news is that there is an android version of myScript Notes in the Samsung app store. The bad news is that for some dumb legal reason, they can't have it in the USA Samsung app store. Just earlier today, I posted a quick message asking if there was a way to by-pass this and access another country's app-store but I haven't gotten any replies yet
Anyway, I went into a lot of detail with my particular search for an Android tablet with a stylus but I think I answered your question :laugh:
Thanks form the replies . these are the 2 tabs that i could find too.... Surprised no others have come into this arena yet.

Yeah, I was kind of surprised by that too. It seems that the only other alternative are Windows 8 tablets. There are a few that use an active stylus like the Microsoft Surface Pro, Samsung Smart PC 500T, Lenevo Thinkpad Tablet 2, and an Asus model among others. But they can get pretty pricy and I'm not too confident about the apps optimized for tablet use on them.
I was just searching Google for this very thing and stumbled upon this thread. There is another, which I own, and it's the HTC Jetstream (Puccini). I was searching because HTC completely abandoned this excellent tablet with 3.1 on it. I am a financial contributor to the project to get it updated to JB but the development is slow going which is why I was Googling for other tabs with pen support. Depending on your needs, the Jetstream may be a good deal since they've been had on eBay lately for $250 or so.
The first gen thinkpad tablet had a active digitizer.

As mentioned the TPT had a digitizer. I believe a TPT2 has a digitizer too, but it's Win8. ( Boo Lenovo. )
I think sales of the gnote10.1 will determine whether or not we see more tabs with digitizers.
I do know that Apple has filed a patent with a digitizer for a tablet.
As has been mention HTC also has some digitizer devices but I think they are mostly phones.
I've also hear that Google has added digitizer support to ICS, does anyone know the details?
For the iPad- the "GoSmart" stylus seems like it is the best stylus for it. Looks ridiculous- but check out the 200 series

Using a capacitive stylus and digitizer is totally different ball game....
People should looks at some of the newer windows 8 pro tabletss that have stylus input. I have not used any so far but looks like they need more work to be done.

I have an elderly HTC 7inch Evo View. I actually grab it first. It's digitizer pen is excellent, but it is running Android 3.2.1 and HTC has abandoned it.
The new Note 8 looks good.
I'm also using the HTC Flyer (or View or EVO whatever Sprint called it) on Sprint still. Not only has HTC abandoned it, but the old data plan isn't even available from Sprint anymore. I'm grandfathered into the old plan (shame I didn't get 4G, I'm just on 3G and it's a 4G tablet - WiMax though, which is dying). I'm about ready to just cancel that.
The Flyer is a GREAT tablet with a GREAT pen. It's very accurate. However, I'm looking to upgrade it now. It's a bit slow and I'd like the latest version of Android. Maybe I can find a ROM, but really I'd like a faster tablet. I might also like it to be 10" too.
I would get the new Surface tablets that have pens from Microsoft if they A. weren't so expensive and B. had a longer battery life.
All I want is a decently powered (hardware) tablet I can draw on that lasts 8+ hours. Preferably 10+ hours. Oh and with modern resolution.
The Flyer lasts a good while, but it's old. Plain and simple.
I'm still using it for note taking and business. It's a wonderful tablet and since there's an obvious lack of options here, I'd highly suggest picking one up off eBay or something. Fantastic tablets if you want to use a pen with accuracy. Awesome for sketching. There's an app called "Quill" which is one of my favorites. Super thin fine pen stroke options.
I may look for the Puccini (Verizon got the 10" version of the Flyer which maybe has better hardware who knows). I can see 10" coming in handy.
I truly wish someone would make another tablet with active digitizer...
Hi.
I will like to ask which Android supporting active digitizer pens devices are available on the market?
For me moment I only know this ones:
Lenovo Thinkpad Tablet (v1)
The Galaxy Note family
HTC Flyer
HTC Jetstream (It seems to support active digitizer pens according to what I read).
HTC EVO View 4G (It seems to support active digitizer pens according to what I read).
What is the hardware requirement for the tablet to support an active digitizer pen? Does it has to have a special screen to support the pen? It depends of the type of active pen?
Any interesting software for the active digitizer pen? I really like:
Quill
MyScript Notes Mobile (ICR)
MyScript Stylus (Beta) (looks good)
Regards
Martin

I really cant decide which is better choice for everyday use like surfing web and watching movies...

I would suggest that you go with Windows since you are going to use it with programs like PS. On the other hand you are a proficient user of Android OS and you are used to controls.
Break it this way:
Price = you can save on the device to invest money in new apps
Performance = spend a little more on the device and save some time while waiting apps to respond your actions

Ok, so here you go. If you think that both devices will be performing well enough for you in terms of RAM, ROM ,CPU and GPU then I would suggest you to go with Galaxy Tab S 8.4. For me Dell Venue has not enough resolution with 1280 x 800 at ONLY 189ppi. I think that if you are doing some creative work with pictures or videos then Galaxy's massive 1600 x 2560 Pixel, 360ppi will give you a huge advantage in terms of reviewing your work.
Personally I am not fan of tablets, so I consider Tablet as a waste of money. In case if you will be using tablet as a tool for presenting your portfolio (perse) then I will consider this as an investment towards your future.
