I don’t know what that is, so that would be a no.

It’s for my brother’s company in Seattle. He has a moving company, and I pretty much do all of his IT support. There’s some Tablet PC software he wants to try for his salesmen (doing estimates, etc.), and he’s interested in using UMPCs to do it.

Of course, as his IT guy, I need one on hand, to be able to support them, so I’m going to get them both configured identically, then send one up to him for his sales staff. We’ll see how it goes, and you can bet I’ll be blogging the whole way.

But right now, I’m like a kid on Christmas Eve – FedEx should be here tomorrow!

That’s the idea – in fact, the idea is for me to keep one of them for support purposes. So you’ll definitely be hearing all about it soon.

Hey, Josh, are you going to be able to get your hands on one of those for testing and give us a report before you turn them over to someone else?

Thanks – I saw ProPortables posts (Justin, I think it was?) He said that their supply is still trickling in, and that after filling backorders, they won’t have enough to ship new orders until after Thanksgiving. But I’ll definitely keep an eye out with them.

Thanks for thinking of me!

Check out http://www.ProPortable.com. He’s a Fujitsu dealer, and seems to be pretty active at the TabletPCReview.com forums (UMPC subforum). He even posted some naked photos of the R2H. There’s also a thread there on his inventory status of R2H’s. Good luck!
