Finally got hold of one of an Averatec C3500 Tablet PC. All is well so far. Just the standard updates and favourite programs installed. Tomorrow I can start messing with the handwriting recognition! Now gotta get some sleep so I can be fully aware of who I can show it off to tomorrow, with lines like, "MM? What? Oh this old thing? NAAAH I just needed a laptop is all, it's nothing, no really!"
So far it has been wonderful, in the short time I have been able to mess with it. The only strange occurance was an Admin login that kept popping up at start up informing me I had the wrong password. Sometimes this would cause the normal login to not appear and the thing would just sit there. I fixed it for now, by just switching off the friendly WinXP welcome screen.
It comes with a full version of Microsoft One Note which strangely enough I could not update because I needed a file which I do not appear to have buried deep within the preinstalled version. No matter, it is all there, and time to see if it will understand my weird and wibbly scrawlings.

Perhaps I should keep an eye on these forums for the time being. So far so good though.
I wonder if it will still respect me in the morning?
