Hewlett Packard Release HP Pavilion TX2500Z ‘Ultra Portable Convertible’ Tablet PC [Successor to the HP Pavilion TX2000z Series]

Hewlett Packard have just released their new HP Pavilion TX2500Z series
'convertible' laptop - which serves in both standard notebook as well as
tablet PC configurations - which, apart from sporting a 12.1' WXGA 1280
x 800 resolution touch screen pivoting display complete with hand
writing recognition, serves to build upon the success of the HP Pavilion
TX2000z by offering AMD Turion X2 Ultra ZM dual-core power - from 2.1GHz
to 2.4GHz - under the hood paired with an ATI Radeon HD 3200 graphics
chipset.

The much anticipated, Vista powered HP Pavilion TX2500Z, apart from
offering increased dual-core processing capabilities, comes complete
with integrated WiFi, TV out (S-video), in built Altec Lansing stereo
speakers, 3 USB ports, 5-in-1 digital media card reader and up to 4GB of
RAM and 320GB 5400RPM SATA HDD as well a veritable host of user
selectable options such as an integrated fingerprint reader mounted on
the side of the unit and a webcam with two omni-directional microphones
but, interestingly, Broadband wireless capabilities are, somewhat
curiously, not included as standard and require a Verizon Wireless V740
ExpressCard which is available as an optional item only.
