TabletPC2 has a Toshiba R400 Tablet PC review posted

- Matt Faulkner

R400Outside2 Looks like Linda has recovered from the Pink Floyd experience and has posted up a nice review of the Toshiba R400 Tablet PC.  There are some great photos and close up pictures of the Tablet PC in the review!

The Toshiba R400 is not the fastest Tablet PC on the block, but it is the most elegant and sophisticated and it does have the best display I have ever seen on a Tablet PC.   The ink experience is excellent and it's a pleasure to use.   In a world where first impressions are important, The Portégé R400 is one of my all time favorite Tablet PCs.

The R400 is not for everyone, It's not intended to be.    The Toshiba Portégé R400 Tablet PC is for those who are confident enough in their life not to have the need to to boast about how much power they have.    It's for those who appreciate elegance, style and sophistication.   For Those who want to make an impression when they walk into a room. It is an is excellent choice the busy professional who wants a Tablet PC that is a reflection of who they are. 

I think we're spoiled with the dual core processors cause the Core solo 1.2 processor doesn't sound that good to me.... especially in a device this big!

Seriously Matt,

I thought Technology commentators were passed simplistic and cliché ed remarks like "not powerful enough". The R400 is a light and mobile device. It has been reviewed many times already and commented on by a few users even on your forums. The consensus is that the processor does not feel that slow yet all you can think of adding to Linda's review is that the core solo 1.2 "does not sound good". I mean, come on, Matt! It's not because you like to meter how many milliseconds Outlook will load and base the performance on highly relative criteria that the device is underpowered. It is not a power station and will not send you to the moon in 2 minutes nor will it run your latest nano particules acceleration uber simulations.

Can you guys stop comparing mobile devices like you look at sport cars ? "It looks fine but can it do 0-100 miles in 10 seconds?" This is getting old and quite frankly does not show a lot of sophistication in device evaluations.
