The good: Dual-mode tablet display; fun-looking design; decent port assortment for a 12-inch laptop.

The bad: Mediocre battery life; unimpressive performance; touch-screen response lags.

The bottom line: The HP TouchSmart tx2z Tablet PC has the features, functions, and price to convert consumer laptop users to tablet users. We just wish it could live a little longer away from an outlet.

The HP TouchSmart tx2z stands alone as a rare example of a consumer-focused convertible tablet PC. We're not sure if this is because non-business-related laptop users don't see the value of a touch-screen tablet, but hopefully they'll catch on soon
 
This is definitely not the first of it's kind, Fujitsu has had these for years and years, and this is the third generation of Tablets from HP.

Asus last week released a netbook Tablet, for 599, so it for sure isn't the cheapest either.
 
its about time apple produce a tablet netbook we are all waiting for a touch screen large ipod touch type.
