Great Value For Money
Review Date: November 24, 2009
Reviewer: A. Brewster, Barbados
So far this laptop has proven its worth. It's feature rich, has great specs for a laptop it's size and is very functional. Everything runs smoothly thanks to the decent processor and the relatively large amount of RAM.
The touchscreen is bright, vivid and responsive.
Battery life is satisfactory though, personally, I would prefer a 12 cell lithium-ion (but this can always be purchased separately).
Wi-fi is great with the inclusion of Wireless n technology (as well as b & g) allowing for faster wireless connection speeds.
320GB hard drive is a lot of storage space considering, for most people, the laptop won't be your main PC.
The new Windows 7 operating system offers many new and fun experiences, as well as the ability to perform tasks efficiently.
Integrated web-cam and mic allow for video conferencing on the go.
The fingerprint scanner is very cool and provides very stringent security for your system and even websites.
My only peeves with the product would be the fact that there are only 2 USB ports and the absence of Bluetooth.
In general, it's a great laptop/tablet PC and I doubt you'll feel cheated if you purchase it.
Update: The unit actually has 3 USB ports and it does tend to get fairly hot at times. The fan noise is tolerable; it really isn't THAT bad.
Good Stuff!

I must say that when I plugged this laptop in, it was like Christmas, the product is amazing..The pen makes a mouse unneccessary even tho I had already purchased one, I doubt I will be using it much..The response is lightning fast, the touch very amazing also.,.all and all, amazing , amazing and did I mention amazing. I own a Touchsmart Desktop for a year now, and it is a great computer also, but I wanted something that I could sit on the bed and play games on , and this computer more that fits the bill. Its everything I hoped for and more. I would highly recommend it to anyone, it is well worth the price, I only gave 988.00 when I got mine but I am glad I did buy it..Enjoy..by the way the swivel screen is really cool too,I just ordered a stand for it will make it more convenient and keep the laptop cool..
Great Value

This is my first laptop, at first I thought it might be too small but for portability its just right. I wanted a full feature laptop and with the exception of HDMI out and Blu-Ray drive, it has everything I would want in a laptop.
scrawl to Segoe Print with marvelous speed and accuracy

This is premature, based on a delightfully stunning twenty minutes with a friend's HP TX2-1370US. After decades of working with the world's most powerful graphic devices, the facility, speed and accuracy with which barely legible handwriting is transformed into Segoe Print gives a pleasure that matches my Steinway B. Another bonus: response and control of the keyboard and cursor is superb. With MS ONE NOTE, this tablet is a masterpiece.
One reviewer complained of the slowness of IE page loading. Why would anybody want to use IE instead of Firefox?
