When can we expect similar (e.g. sensors, gps; 5 finger touch and so forth) ultrabooks on the market? At Windows 8 launch or later?

it’s good question. I’ve been using touchscreen laptops for years and I find there are things that are easy, things that are just plain wring and things that you can teach yourself to do to improve speed and productivity. I’ve never had a problem with touching the screen. In fact , there’s a train of thought that says it’s better for your wrists to pick them up and move them occasionaly.
Try it!

I’m putting together a video right now for you.

Whoa Chippy are you in the porn biz now, whats with the long hair & stache?

I really don’t see how x86 W8 & apps are going to work universally unless MS can make all manufactures adhere to a set of minimum standards with specs (including touchscreens & sensors now).

I still don’t get why the frak you would need a touchscreen on a non-convertible. It’s useless and your arms get tired, just like schmo said above. And that glossy piece of crap screen ? Pfff…..

With the same amount of money, or probably a little more, you can get an Asus UX31A and a Nexus 7, which will kick any crap like this in the but. Personally tried both versions, so I speak from experience. These abominations really need to get the frak off the market…

Does your arm get tired when using the touchscreen for a while? I can see my weak arms getting tired after a couple minutes.
