Any good things to say? Bad expeirences?

Battery Life?

Help is appreciated!

It is light. 8-) You might want to do a search through this newsgroup for
previous posts about the NEC computer. Instead of using the web-base
newsgroup interface, I'd suggest you use your news reader (like Outlook
Express) and simply set up the msnews.microsoft.com news server which is
free, no login, no password.

When you set up OE (Help will guide you), you can subscribe to any Microsoft
newsgroup you wish, do lots of searches easily, mark your own messages (even
in color) and track threads, etc.

doesn't seem to be too many users...

maybe they'll post more experiences later on - I'll hate to make a mistake.
I'm looking for a machine that'll allow me to take notes and info down, not
major processing stuff..

I had one for a few months and just replaced it. My issues were (1) poor
viewing angle of the screen, (2) loud fan that comes on a lot, (3) short
battery life, and (4) no docking solution. I've been using a Motion M1400
with view anywhere screen for about a week and love it. I do miss the NEC's
Smaller size though!

Given that it's nearly one pound less than any other tablet out there, and
at its current price it's certainly worth considering.

there's an entire forum dedicated to the NEC at www.tabletpcbuzz.com

You might want to check out the NEC forum at tabletPCBuzz, where there
is quite a bit about the NEC Versapad:

Seem to be a fair amount of users there

I've got one. I like it a lot. The battery life is about 2 hrs if you
have your settings correct. The wireless adapter is a real weak point,
I replaced mine with an intel wireless G card.

Can you please post details on how you replaced the wireless card? I am
interested in doing the same, but am finding it difficult to dismantle
the unit to find out where the card slot is..
Thanks in advance
