I know this is not the 1^st 2-in-one or shall I say convertible gadget you have seen (I believe Lenovo was the 1^st to release such device. Though this is the fact I believe HP will not let us down. This gizmo is called a PC tablet though it’s more of a netbook to me that can turn into a PC tablet. The reason is a PC Tablet is a slate device that is equipped with a digital pen (stylus) and Touchscreen; this is the 1^st tablet PC that has a physical keyboard. If you would examine the pictures you would say that I do make sense.

So much for the physical attributes let’s move on to what it can deliver and perform. HP has equipped Touchsmart TM2 with new features that most probably will be the 1^st ever from any HP PC.

You can navigate on your TouchSmart TM2 with the stylus, your fingers and with the keyboard which ever you want, you have 3 options to choose from. It will be equipped with virtual sticky notes that you can post on your desktop (this is not so new to me).

It has games that will surely make your kids/niece or nephew to appreciate gadgets while enjoying and learning sea creatures with DigFish Dolphin in 3D.Other than games another 3D program included is BumpTop that would let you enjoy your desktop screen like it’s actually a real desk where your files or documents toss and bump from one another. It will also have Corel paint, Hulu and SnapFish.

Let’s move on with the hardware

For the processor you have an option to choose from these:

• Intel Core 2 Duo SU7300 at 1.30GHz, 800MHz FSB
• Intel Core 2 Duo SU9600 at 1.60GHz, 800MHz FSB

Each processor is tagged with a graphics card

Basically this device from HP is made to be customized to meet your needs. Which is great right? You can have it your way! I think this is HP’s way to help their patrons save some dough at the same time have the perfect tablet pc in their hands.

Here’s a snap shot of the exact details of what you can choose from

*Price tag starts at $949 (discounted) but the regular price is $1,149.99

I have included a video so you have a better picture of what it can do!
