tc1100 tablet pc dies before i've even set it up
4wd:
My bad - I noticed XP had 'Tablet PC' support and didn't realise that there was other tablet apps that were installed.
I did find this however and XP Tablet PC Edition isn't that hard to find on the net since you still get a license for it.
wraith808:
But does a normal XP license (which seems to be what is included) work for tablet edition? From other tablet sites I've frequented, I seem to remember that it doesn't... and if you install standard XP, you don't get tablet functionality.
Update: That link is pretty cool! However, you can get a tablet for a little more (from what I found when I was looking) with tablet already installed, making initial setup a bit less intensive. I think that the older models of motion pcs have reached the wholesale market and you see a lot of these on there stripped down.. many with no HD.
Here's one on eBay that's a *slight* bit more after conversion...

According to the User Manual it came standard with XP Tablet PC Edition - so that is what the COA sticker should be for.

According to the *listing* it comes with a COA for XP Professional. Again, with those warehouse specials, in a lot of cases they don't have the original license... so they also get a stack of XP COAs to include... that might not be the case with this one, but... (given, it does say that it still has it's COA sticker attached, but I wouldn't assume...)

Sorry to hear that. I know how you feel. I always lose on bids at eBay. I've tried to get some new camera lenses... No luck. I don't want to pay 75% of the price of a new lense for a used one, so I lose. Maybe it's time to try my luck again...
