Quick review

The good: Affordable, good keyboard
The bad: Standard battery life poor, few extras
Verdict: This tablet PC is aimed at consumers and in most respects it delivers. However, it feels more like a notebook with a touchscreen than a dedicated tablet

Comments

Just one note:
I have this computer, or at least the Staples - Business Depot version (3 gigs of Ram), and you definitely can rest your hand on the screen while you use the attached stylus.
The screen is electro-magnetic and the stylus has some kind of magnetics in it so as long as you opt to use the stylus the screen only picks up its clicks.
I you opt to use your fingers than yes you will have problems with your hand resting on the screen but I don't see how you would choose your fingers over the stylus.

Great computer! I love it. Posted by Dwight, Canada
