We have discussed this many times: Windows 7 is a great OS, but not what you'd expect for a touch tablet, that's why the best slates out there are the ones powered by iOS and Android. That doesn't mean they're perfect, as contrary to them, the complexity of Windows 7 is what some people are looking for, and when that's the only alternative things happen: Justin Campana, a known Windows modder, has posted a tutorial about how you can convert the Windows 7 user interface to make it a lot more fin...

Do you have something to say and think no one is listening? Are you a tablet passionate or have a thought to share about this niche? What about guest posting on All Touch Tablet about all those things that go through your head. As you'll be a guest here you won't take home a big cheque, but you won't pay for entrance either, so what you get is a wider audience than a personal blog (I like to think AllTouchTablet is bigger than your average blog, buy feel free to disagree), readers targeted on ta...

I thought past days about ways to make AllTouchTablet better, and one of the ideas was to make more how to articles and videos to help those who already have a tablet. I'm not talking about complex articles, but small ones that each cover one topic. I hope you'll help me by telling what you would like to read about, what tutorials you might want to read/see and what are your interests concerning tablets. You can use the contact form, drop a comment anywhere in the site or write me an email (john...

Chrome OS is an old story, but one that hasn't reached climax yet, as Google didn't launched it officially yet. So we're left with a few images and short video teasers from last year. But now we know the general strategy of Google, as Eric Schmidt, Google's CEO, recently mentioned in an interview to Reuters that Chrome OS is coming and will be the OS of choice for netbooks, competing clearly here with the MeeGo (the child of Intel and Nokia partnership).At the same time Android 3.0 is pushed...

There are ways and there are ways of building a touchscreen, but almost all of them imply using a special layer that attaches over the surface of the original display and interprets your touch points into coordinates that are then transmitted to a computer, which applies your action.One user tried to do it differently, using range sensors mounted on the side of the display, so that they pick up the distance from them to your hand, thus computing where exactly on the screen you are pointing. ...

Wow, do people still ask this question? Well, apparently they do, as a lot of consumers don't know exactly the difference between a tablet PC and a laptop, so when faced with those two types of products in an online store they don't know what to choose.I won't make a big deal of this article, but I'll try and explain in plain language the main differences between a tablet PC and a laptop/notebook.So let's see what makes a laptop and what makes a Tablet PC, simple as that: Screen This i...

Today I was sitting in front of my computer (same as always, my friends would say) and thought of what interesting articles to write and spotted the following idea: how would my perfect tablet look like and how it should perform.That's right, my perfect tablet, not the perfect tablet. Needless to say that the perfect tablet doesn't exist yet, and won't ever be built, because perfect is something that depends on who you ask.I'm not dealing with perfection in this post but with expressing ...

I bet that even if you're not that interested in gadgets, you must have heard all the talk going around this year about the iPad and tablets in general. It's normal, as this relatively new kind of product has become so popular in past months that people can't get enough of them, and statistics are seeing good times too, with sales numbers expected to skyrocket. In this post I'm going to tell you about some things regular folks don't know about tablets: what they really are and how does a tablet ...
