    For more, check the links in the description of the vid, or google "hp slate device".

    This looks pretty epic, a definite possible iPad killer. What do you guys think?

    Why does that look like an iPod USB charger?

    And why does the screen look like it's running iTunes for a computer?

    It's not out of the relm of possiblity that the slate is running iTunes on it and it can sync with iTunes (explains the USB)

    I wouldn't think Apple would allow that... And unless it can run .EXE's I don't think it's possible (and I didn't think it could run EXE's)

    Well who knows. It's obviously running iTunes so my guess is the ability to run .exe files

    @gadm it's not that hard to understand

    You can't beat the iPad unless you have a unique OS. If it's running a full blow OS it has a good chance of sucking. You shouldn't really try and compare anything to Apple anyway, cause they're a thing of their own. That's how I'm starting to see it. Even though I have a device from each category and each side. I will always be a M$ fanboy because I feel sorry for them... lols So you know... :cool:

    Create a USB car charger for any iPod or other Device that Charges Via USB by splicing together a car adapter that outputs 5v and USB Female plug. The most important part of this project is to make sure that the output your chosen car adapter is between 4.75v and 5.25v otherwise you risk damaging your device. Please verify voltage with a voltmeter.
