Long Zheng of istartedsomething takes a hands-on look at the new Dell Tablet PC. Overall it looks like he's quite positive on the dual digitizer device:
"In conclusion, this is a very slick and feature-packed Tablet PC and a notable first entry into the market from Dell. This is not a “me-too-tablet�. They’ve certainly put a lot of thought into the design and engineering of this device and it’s certainly a joy to use. However it all comes to price, which ultimately decides its value and who can afford it. Sadly when you put the features and price side by side, it’s hard to justify the subtle innovation for the extremely high premiums. A lot of people who would have otherwise been all over this product - students like myself - can barely touch the most standard model. If you have money lying around, this is a top-tier Tablet you won’t regret."
For me--a developer--I like more horsepower, but I'd sure like to have a go at developing apps with the Dell's Capacitive touch in mind. If only, Dell would lower the price :-).
