Motion Computing LS800 Tablet PC

 

The LS800 is the smallest Tablet PC to hit the market yet, but its high price, high heat, and short battery life detract from an otherwise cool product.

Pocket-size. Only 2.2 pounds. Mont Blanc feel to the pen. Good security suite.

Base gets hot. Expensive. Short battery life.

Motion Computing LS800

 

The LS800 measures a tiny 6.5 by 9.0 by 1.0 inches (HWD), and from a distance it looks more like a 5-by-7 picture frame than a PC. Because it's a slate, there's no keyboard, and it can easily slip into a coat pocket and fits comfortably in the palm of...

Motion Computing LS800 Tablet PC Review

 

After three days I have to say I am very impressed. As previously posted my first impression was “wow that's small” and I still think that every time I look at it. However I now have a few additional things to say…

Motion Computing LS800

 

It's hard to describe the Motion Computing's LS800 Tablet PC as anything other than a shrunken version of the company's flagship LE1600 slate. Put the two side by side and the LS800's "mini-me" status within the family hierarchy becomes even more...

On the software side, the LS800 comes with Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005. Motion adds a bunch of very useful utilities , such as the Dashboard, Windows Journal and Sticky Notes, and speech recognition. The Motion Pak (a steal at $34.99 and...
