A challenger appears!!\u00a0 The Great Tablet War<\/a> continues.\u00a0 Apple was the first major player on the field and completely destroyed all competitors to the point that we cannot even remember their names…\u00a0 But that dominance will only hold for so long.<\/p>\n

On Engadget (who else) we have a leak of the new HP Slate.\u00a0 And the specs look great. We have been hearing rumors for awhile, but this is first with some teeth. Its going for $549, an 8.9′ 1024×600 mutli-touch display.\u00a0 We have a 1.6 g processor and UMA with accelerator for 1080p video playback. Nice.<\/p>\n

Now, look what new weapons this HP brings to the battle.\u00a0 TWO.. count them TWO cameras!\u00a0 A SDHC slot, USB port, Sim slot for the 3G.\u00a0 GPS! (why?) Dock connector of course. The battery is 5 hours, 1\/2 of the ‘claimed’ 10 hr ipad – now really… 1o hours?\u00a0 Anyway,\u00a0 we have windows7 installed.\u00a0 That a big point because that mean pen support, AND that means you can write as an input.\u00a0 For anyone who has used a windows7 tablet\/slate, the handwriting recognition is action pretty good, so but win there.<\/p>\n

Now for those of you questioning running Windows7 on a 1.6g processor, I have an old HP TC1100 with 1.2g and 2 g of ram with a SSD and its runs great!!\u00a0 I’m sure the Atom will hold up as well if not better.\u00a0 The real key here will be the graphics card and the speed of processing touch screen response.\u00a0 It has to equal if not exceed the glossy feel that I get with the ipad.\u00a0 Had to be THAT fast. Anything less, and this could be a short battle indeed.\u00a0\u00a0 So let the clash of titans begin!!<\/p>\n
