HP Refreshing the tx Series Tablet PC?

- Warner Crocker

Although more of a media machine than a real Tablet PC, it looks like HP is refreshing its tx Series convertible Tablet PCs, along with a number of other announcments. The tx1000 captured a lot of attention on its release, so it will be interesting to see if the new tx1400 will do the same. Again, more of a touch enabled media computer than a real Tablet PC, the tx1400 is powered by a 2.2GHz AMD Turion 64 X2 TL-64 processor and 2GB of RAM. The tx1400 also comes with 802.11n built in.

JR.com already has this up for sale on their site priced at $1199. I’m not finding anything on HP’s site on this at the moment, but we’ll update the post when we do.

Forgive my ignorance, but why is the tx Series Tablet PC "more of a touch enabled media computer than a real Tablet PC?" I'm in the market for a new tablet right now and was looking closely at the HP tablet vs. a Fujitsu T2010 vs. Dell, Toshiba and a few others. I'm coming from a Fujitsu U810, which I love for casual use on the go.

So what's the inside line on HP's tx Series Tablet? Appreciate your thoughts. :)

The HP tx series does not have an active digitizer. For those, like me, who think of Tablet PCs as a device for Inking, we were somewhat disappointed with the Inking ability on the first edition. In fact, HP's marketing aimed more at the media angle than it did at the Tablet angle. If you're not into Inking then this is a very powerful computer with touch screen capability.
