Toshiba Tecra M7 Tablet PC Hardware InkShow

- Rob Bushway

One of the good things about being 4 years out from the Tablet PC launch is that there are  plenty of choices in regards to sizes and form factors. For those who desire a large screen Tablet PC, one of the choices that should to be on your short list is the Toshiba Tecra M7 Tablet PC. At 14", Core Duo, and sporting a widescreen display, it offers a lot of punch and plenty of writing space. We take a look at the M7 in this Hardware InkShow to help you along in the decision process. We even answer that often asked question: "What is that silver ring that comes in the pen box?"

Special thanks to Allegiance Technology Partners for supplying us this review unit. If you would like to review the M7 for yourself or purchase one, contact John Hill at Allegiance Technology Partners.

Rob,

Good InkShow! By the way, I have an R15 and the overall design is very similar. I have the same problem with the DVD ROM drive popping out. Toshiba includes a simple utility, that resides in the tray, that lets you turn the DVD ROM on or off. When off, the drive is essentially locked.

Thanks, Feral.

the problem with that utility is that it doesn't stay off - when you reboot, you have to remember to turn it back off.

Rob,

Yeah, it's a kludge rather them an elegant solution. I use my DVD so rarely that I'd like to be able to replace it with a spacer until I need it. The R15 is heavy...like you, I've got my eye on the upcoming Lenovo TPC.
