Dell Latitude XT2: Industry first Tablet PC with multi-touch Capabilities
By James • Feb 25th, 2009 • Category: Mobile Computer NewsLatitude XT2 is Dell’s first multi-touch capable tablet PC and an industry first. It’s a high performance tablet with exceptional touch screen capabilities and unprecedented digitiser pen functionality. It simply works the way you want. Apart from the normal touch screen operations, the Latitude XT2 also responds to some advanced multi-touch gestures like a pinch or tap to quickly scroll through pages, zoom in or zoom out, enlarge e-mails, maximise and restore the windows, change windows orientation and much more. It’s so user friendly that you will rarely feel to use keypad and touchpad.
Besides this the XT2 attracts the mobile computing fans because of its ultra-thin design. Just like its predecessor the Dell Latitude XT, you can slip it into any bag and carry with ease. The tablet features an ultra small power supply and high capacity slim battery that can keep you ON for hours in both notebook and tablet PC mode. When working in the tablet PC mode the XT2 offers a large multi-touch display that is optimised for use under direct sunlight.
Apart from its impressive design and exceptional multi-touch performance the Latitude XT2 packs cutting edge technology and speedy hardware. It supports dual core multi-threaded processing, large amount of RAM, optical disks, SATA hard drive, eSATA, USB, FireWire, ExpressCard slot and other connectivity and expansion options. The XT2 makes it easy to manage all your tasks by offering preloaded tools and applications that make sure you don’t have to deal with complexities of the cutting edge technology incorporated in the device.
