Now this is what the LE1700 should have been, well as a slate any way… can I bear to give up a slate and carry an extra .3 lbs for that keyboard and extra hinge/plastic?

The extended battery will bring total run time up to 10 hours. Would’ve been great if a third battery could snap in as an alternative of the base station.

This looks fantastic. Might be what replaces my TC1100.

That video Xavier linked to really shows off how slim and slick it is. The extended battery that snaps to the bottom is a nice feature as well.

5 hrs battery life? LED backlit display?

YUM.

I’m here in Shanghai for the HP Mobility Summit and had a chance to play with the 2710p. I interviewed the product manager and posted a video of it here:

I really like the machine. It’s very thin and has a base unit and an extended battery that sandwich together on the base.
Another nice touch is the base has a rubberized finish to make sure it doesn’t slip in your hands.
The new tablet will start at $1,600.
