Lenovo ThinkPad W700 Has a BUILT-IN Wacom Tablet and Professional Grade Screen
2:01PM Adrian Covert | Lenovo’s ThinkPad W700 is a 17-inch behemoth that’s the first notebook ever with a built-in Wacom digitiser. Designed for professional use in industries such as graphic design, photography and CAD, the digital tablet lets you manipulate images in programs like Photoshop without any extra gear. In addition, the 3.6kg notebook features a professional grade, WUXGA screen with 400 nit brightness (it’s actually stunning) and an auto colour-calibration sensor that lets you adjust display settings on the fly. Except for the fact it runs Vista, it’s like the perfect pro photographer’s workstation. galleryPost('lenovow700', 3, ''); More »

The PlayStation 3 Works Well Enough With Tablets
11:29PM Mark Wilson | It’s one of those things that makes sense, but we’d never tried before. One tablet-happy artist decided to plug in his Wacom tablet into his PS3. The result? It was essentially plug ‘n play. While a combination of the PS3’s firmware and third party game design mean that it could never be used play 90% of the PS3’s library, the tablet worked quite well for cruising around the menus and even fast forwarding and rewinding through media. Plus, it looks way more sophisticated than that DualShock 3. [via PS3 Fanboy] More »

Axiotron ModBook Review (Verdict: A Touchscreen MacBook Done Right)
6:00AM Jason Chen | It’s was exactly a year from the time Axiotron first debuted their touchscreen MacBook at Macworld 2007 to the time we got the first hands-on of it at Macworld 2008, and that year of development time seems to have done the company some good. Not only is this ModBook the touchscreen Mac Apple fans have been looking for, it’s got all the components of a MacBook, which means it’s not a low-powered, stripped down, gimped version (MacBook Air) that sacrifices performance for the tablet pen sensitivity. And for that, we’re thankful.
