Acer TravelMate C301XCI

 

Acer's convertible tablet sports a 14.1-inch screen, speedy performance, long battery life, and plenty of ports and slots. But with a travel weight of 7.3 pounds, it's big and cumbersome to use.

Large display; excellent performance and battery life; smart-card reader; automatic light sensor.

Big and heavy; screen wobbles.

Acer's fast TravelMate C301XCi supersizes the tablet format, but it's too big and heavy for all but the most dedicated tablet users.

Acer TravelMate C300

 

In our previous roundup, Gateway introduced us to the first Tablet PC with a 14.1-inch screen.

All told, the C300 is an average two-spindle notebook. As a Tablet PC, though, this bulky model seems more like a machine looking for an audience than one that an audience will go out of its way to find.

Acer TravelMate TMC314XMi Tablet PC Intel Pentium M 760(2.00GHz) 14.1" XGA 1GB Memory DDR2 533 100GB HDD DVD±R/RW NVIDIA GeForce Go 6200

 

overall i give this product 9 out of 10 stars

This notebook is great for multi-purpose use (such as school and home use) and it beats competitors price for its features

The cons are that the notebook is a bit heavy and the battery life is not that long(i was expecting a longer battery life but i can only get a max of 4hrs)

Looks good

 

BUY this notebook, but skip the ezdock option. the expresscard uses the usb2.0 bus and you can buy cheaper tv tuner's that are USB 2.0 for cheaper and not have to dock the notebook to use that function.

Excellent desktop replacement laptop ; Port replicator available as optional add-on acer part lc.d0103.004. This allows you to add an expresscard to your system. A good reason to do this is the avermedia tv tuner

Biggest and only con is the fact that acer includes 1gb ram, which is great, BUT it is 2x512MB and only 2 ram slots. The 1gb modules are around $450. So to upgrade to 2GB(the max supported memory) you will have to pay almost half the notebook price and...

Acer Will Take Over the Computer World and Newegg Will Sell Them

 

The Acer Tablet PC software is highly customizable for accessibility -The computer has a very sleek look and the hinge is very strong, "the strongest one for a tablet PC" according to one review I read.

Very Fast for a Tablet ; No Setup Time at All ; I did a lot of research into other tablets and this is the best one I could find for a desktop replacement ; For an XGA screen, I was shocked at how clear it is. The screen is definitely not a limiting...

Screen Refresh Rate max is 60Hz at 1024x768, but I've worked on the computer for hours with no strain on my eyes

Perfect for any student

 

Great gear for any student on the go. Writing is natural and easy... better than paper. Notebook is extreamly well equipped for the price. Best value by far

Too many startup programs by default

I have a slightly older model

 

I got a C300 (older model) from Newegg in March. I just want to say how much I love this tablet. It is fully functional as a laptop, and useful in meetings as a tablet. It's a little big, but the battery life is great.

Awesome computer

 

I had researched in detail for tablets. I use this for just about everything, note taking, CAD, Proe, rocksim, Halo. This is an excellent machine! The specs say it all, granted the size and weight are a little big for a tablet, but if you use MS...

Acer C310 Review

 

Overall I am happy with the tablet. For some reason though, everytime I change the screen, I have to recalibrate the pen to the screen. But to be honest, I was a Toshiba M205 user, and have just ordered the Tecra M4 Tablet. But the Acer is undoubted...
