Have I been had: Fujitsu CT2020 or FPCMCT20201 Some other guys on another forum site told me I should post this here because they claim its not really a Tablet PC even though Fujitsu DOES on their web site and in support documentation. I need some answers if anyone can help. It does seem like a BIG PDA to me, but is listed as a Tablet PC and I've contacted 3 different people at Fujitsu and apparently all they can do for me is verify that its a valid product, but no one there can tell me what it retailed for in 2005 when it was being sold/produced.
I will reveal if I've been had after some people help me with some questions. Just bought a Fujitsu Stylistic CT2020 CE Tablet PC MINT CONDITION NEVER USED. I have no clue about this thing or tablet PCs, but I know a great deal about computers and laptops. I scoured the net on this thing before I bought it and it was hard to find information on it and I cannot figure out why. I looked for recalls, defects, etc.. and found nothing except that it had won an editors choice award in 2005. The few web sites I did find selling these were listing them at around $1300 which made me feel as though I was getting a good deal, but for whatever reason I didn't think to check Ebay for similar products (did check for this exact one and found none sold). I figured if I couldn't find it on Ebay and its basically a 2005 product then maybe people are just liking there's a lot and kept them. I know nothing about Windows CE .NET 4.2 except that its a scaled down version of windows for embedded systems. So I guess my main question is if someone were to sell this product TODAY and it was NEW never used what would a reasonable price for it be and why? What are the other competing products out there and how much better are they? Is this thing just on an old OS? Did not that many people like it? Why didn't CNET do a review on it? Is this a PDA or a Tablet PC and if its a PDA why can Fujitsu get away with calling it a Tablet PC? Should it be sold as a BIG PDA? Should I install Windows Mobile 5 on it to make it more marketable? Is that even possible? How? Here are its specs too:
