If I could get a sig3 or slightly wider width, wafer thin device, with 6.5-7" widescreen and good arm cpu/gpu combo I'd consider an hpc again. Shame tegra didn't have anything as when they first showed tegra netbooks etc they ran CE and even had a Firefox build for it
(reason ce allowed gpu acceleration and android didn't at time
).
Even if I could pick up one of those early devices that never made it I'd have CE again. Though tbh with RT my ideal size and shape device is quite possibly around the corner
(plus if I buy and rt app I get it for win 8 as well
) it has printer drivers, good browser etc. etc. I'd happily take a razor thin RT netbook style device and feel RT does make it possible for HPC successor and resurgence in ultra portable and it has enough features and ability to be as productive and exceed what ce\hpc offered back in the day...
Please device manufacturers look at the Sig3 then re-imagine it with a bigger screen
(flipable for tablet mode
) and make it just a tiny bit sleeker with some aluminium construction but keep the thicker rear to allow a swappable battery module
(doesn't need to be round or as big
) hinge in middle and two single modules pop in from each end????
You know what I might just PhotoShop up a design idea using Sig3 as a base and see what it looks like
