HP Reveals Laptop-Tablet PC Hybrid

11-18-08-touchsmart-tx2-han.jpg

Given the wide range of gadgets to choose from these days, it's tough to come up with a decision. If you don't know how to settle between a laptop and a tablet PC, why not get both? The HP TouchSmart tx2 is a multitouch piece of hardware that can give you the best of both worlds.

Boasting a 12.1-inch swivel display (LED-backlit) that's just dying to have your prints all over it, the tx2 will come loaded with Windows Vista, a bezel-mounted fingerprint reader, integrated webcam with microphone, Bluetooth / WiFi, stereo speakers, a 5-in-1 multicard reader and a LightScribe SuperMulti DVD burner.

You can hit the source for more information, including a link that details the hands-on experience. The question here is if this is a direction that other manufacturers will follow. Are we going to see more multitouch laptops in the future? Is it time to give them a name? I call dibs on touchtop. I know it's terrible, but laptouch sounds so wrong.
