X2 Computing Launches The iTablet
By Chris WeissMany of us were expecting an iTablet last week (sure would beat an iPad), but we had to wait a little longer to get one. U.K. company X2 Computing has released the iTablet and filled it with some of the iPad’s shortcomings. Of course, while the iPad soars to success in a couple months, the iTablet will surely become just another forgotten device in the sea of anonymous tablets.
But here goes anyway: the iTablet is a range of Windows 7 and Linux tablet PC’s that come in 10.2-inch and 12.1-inch varieties. The displays are widescreens with 1024 x 768 resolution. The company claims that multitouch is optional. Other specs include 1.6 GHz Intel processors, up to 250 GB hard drives, 3 USB ports, stereo speakers, Wi Fi, Bluetooth, 3G and optional HDMI out. Unlike the iPad, the iTablet also brings Flash support, multi-tasking and a 1.3-MP webcam.
This tablet will ship in April and pricing is yet to be announced. We’re thinking it’ll start somewhere below the $499 range, though. [via Pocket-lint]
