Carbon shell tablet PC, who’s the geek now?
Big power outage here earlier this morning…coffee bean grinder no grind, DSL modem no blink…I’m definitely off my stride. I’m declaring this an OFI Friday, and will soon be off to fool with the fleet. If you’re stuck inside somewhere, you might want to picture yourself strolling down a dock with this Flintstone tablet PC in hand (for full effect, include the GSM whip antenna not screwed onto this prototype). I saw it displayed at a show once, and the developer’s site is still up, but I’ve never seen one in the field. In my fantasy, the case is carbon black and the boat I’m strolling toward is the Wally 118. Oh yeah.

I saw this thing two years ago down at IBEX. The guy who built it came in and handed the unit off to some guy who had a booth, just so he could get some exposure. I’m surprised that the basic design has not advanced beyond the clunky spaceageesque aesthetic that really seems to be at odds wiith most boats.
