ExoPC is another example of tablet that was announced early in 2010 but didn’t quite make in to market. There were issues all over, production related, software related (it comes with a custom UI) and so on. At one time it could be prordered in Canada and Portugal, but it didn’t make if over the border to US, that is till today. Apparently Chiara, the company behind ExoPC managed to solve all its problema as the 11.6 inch Windows 7 tablet showed up for preorder in the Microsoft Online Store (http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/en_US/buy/pageType.product/externalRefID.EC722AD1) for 699$.
I don’t really know what to say about pricing, it’s not extremely expensive, but surely it won’t win any awards for cheapness. If you need a reminder about what you’re getting here are the highlights: single core Atom N450 CPU, 2 GB RAM, 64 GB SSD drive, 11.6 inch HD Ready display, 4 hours battery life, Windows 7 Home Premium, all in an 2.09 lbs weight. So, are you getting one, wait for reviews of already thinking of iPad 2?
