TabletKiosk Vista Slate PC

TabletKiosk this morning revamped its Sahara tablets to use Microsoft's newest OS. Each of the three 12-inch models is capable of running Windows Vista Business and has had its features and performance upgraded to match. All models have relatively uncommon additions like a fingerprint scanner, an eSATA connector for external hard drives, and wireless through Bluetooth 2.0 and 802.11a/b/g Wi-Fi.

Models start at $1,795 with a 1.06GHz ultra-low voltage Celeron M, 512MB of RAM, and a 60GB hard drive in the base Sahara i412T model; a step up to the i440T increases the speed significantly to a low-voltage 1.83GHz Core Duo with 1GB of memory and an 80GB hard disk. Most special of the collection is the flagship i440D, the company notes: where the first two versions have a passive touchscreen that requires a stylus, the i440D's screen is an active digitizer that can switch to finger input and registers pressure sensitivity on its own. It ships for $2,295 in March alongside the rest of the new Sahara models. [via SlashGear]
