James Kendrick and I have both recently picked up Lenovo ThinkPad x61 Tablet PCs and in show #38 we discuss the x61 from stem to stern. James has the SXGA+ (1440×1040) screen while I’m using the MultiTouch XGA screen and we compare the virtues of each.
James’ x61 has the Intel Turbo Memory option, which is a flash memory cache designed to speed up disk access and program loading. My unit the integrated WWAN option instead. Join us for a roundabout conversation that covers all aspects of the first ThinkPad Tablet PC with the Santa Rosa Core 2 Duo processor.
We discuss how we each used different methods to get the information and settings from their old Tablet PC over to the ThinkPad. James used the Belkin Easy Transfer cable and Marc used the included Lenovo System Migration Assistant to accomplish the same thing. The Belkin soltuion is available for use on non-ThinkPad PCs.
One of the most useful utilities you will find for any PC is Anagram and we discuss the latest version which is now Vista and Outlook 2007 compatible and has been optimized for the Tablet PC.
Enjoy the show!
