I want to buy a Tablet PC. I don't really want a keyboard, since I have a wonderful Touchstresm key-less keyboard. So the tablet need not be convertible.
I'd prefer a screen that takes passive (finger) input as well as Pen input; if I can't have both I'd prefer passive.
I'll mainly use the machine for compiling code whilst listening to mp3s, so it needs a big harddrive (80 GB+, 120 is better), a fast processor, and lots of memory. And of course long battery life.
How close can I get to what I want for up to, say, $2500?
