Interesting - first I thought it was a Tablet PC (those have been discussed here - generally, they're as expensive as a laptop) but it appears like it's a specialized device that runs .NET applications from ROM. It would depend what the cost is. On the low cost end, you have the Nokia 800, but its screen isn't nearly that big. On the high cost end, you have the tablets and laptops. Somewhere in between, almost as much as a laptop, is a device called a Pepper Pad 3. It would be interesting to see where this fits. There is a .NET SlimServer viewer, highly developed and quite advanced, called Moose: http://www.rusticrhino.com/drlovegrove/ Hopefully it'd be able to run it. -- Mark Lanctot ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Lanctot's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2071 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33224 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
