Re: "Ruby" Prototype

Not to contradict, but the aritcle states
"it still packs a Pentium M ULV 600 and Wacom just like on a TabletPC. The
screen is not touch-sensitive though"
Maybe yes the author doesnt understand how tablet pcs work.. or maybe just
stating that as a good thing.. (Its how i read it.. more on the lines of
"its not a touch sensistive though! *smile*") But I could be wrong.
I think it looks neat, but why with the size!!
