HP EliteBook 6930p Lasts All Day, Literally

5:40AM Mark Wilson | The HP EliteBook 6930p is a nice enough laptop when configured with an LED 14.1-inch screen and SSD. But it’s got one big claim to fame if you’re willing to fork over the cash for these extras.

Specs and features are mostly the same as the other EliteBooks too (Intel Core 2 Duo ULV, SSD option, HP business and security stuff like the biz card reader, encryption and DriveGuard). Except you know, it’s a tablet, with options for a standard LED-backlit screen or Outdoor View and a jog dial. More »
