Don't know how accurate the sales people were with Mr. McDonald and his educational institution, but according to a Microsoft TPC OEM type dude, there is development going on inside Dell Computer Corp.:
"Host: robert (Microsoft)
Q: To refresh my question posed earlier, I wonder if Sony, Dell, and IBM are going to offer their own tablet pc any time soon.
A: We are working very closely with all three companies. They continue to engage with us on tablet pc. However, we are not free to disclose their plans."
This was from a chat transcript on the microsoft website. Does anyone know ANYTHING about when/if Dell's TPC will be released? It has to be soon... IBM just released theirs in Korea. Would be awesome if it had a Sonoma ("Centrino 2") package and same SXGA resolution like the Toshiba. Though Sonoma's chipset won't start shipping out till Q1 05 and I think the 12.1" SXGA is only manufactured by Toshiba...
