298 10:17 pm PST, Nov 23 Anonymous Maryland United States As soon as one was available. No other PC form factor, slate or convertible. provides a comparable ability to work in any environment. Longer battery life.

295 1:53 pm PDT, Oct 21 Ben W Massachusetts United States Immediately. In fact I would buy a new one each year for everyone on my team if they improved meaningfully. Well thought out design: detachable keyboard with relatively durable turntable, tilting/rotating docking station, aesthetically pleasing shape. Also, relatively comfortable stylus with eraser, absolutely flat top deck with scratch resistant screen, external battery charging options. Built in cellular modem, same physical size, but screen that goes out to the edge, webcam. Combined stereo headphone/mic jack for VoIP. And normal improvements in the evolution of portables: higher resolution screen, more RAM, HDD (or solid state drives), fastest avail wired/wireless networking, longer battery life, lighter, thinner. And keep it affordable, please.

285 5:15 am PDT, Aug 27 Henry Sutter Florida United States several tough. compaq, good protective case, comparatively light for a tablet, when using the system on your lap the cpu venting is up in the cool air, it was the best layout for a tablet my Dr's and Nurses if they have one given the up for one of the new HP ALWAYS ask for the old one back. dual core, more ram, faster bus, solid state hd, cell modem
284 1:17 am PDT, Aug 26 József Strobl   Hungary as soon as it will be available Removable keyboard, size, massive design HDD indicator LED, hardware RADIO ON/OFF switch (flight mode), improved cardreader, built-in webcam, backlight control button (jog-dial), volume button (jog-dial)
283 3:58 pm PDT, Aug 11 Zoe Li   New Zealand      
282 6:53 am PDT, Aug 8 Michael Stevens   New Zealand when i required one. the fact the keyboard can be removed from the slate, making the slate as small and transportable as possible More powah.
281 7:15 am PDT, Aug 5 Desislav Danov   Bulgaria ASAP design, functionality, performance (even compared to present day notebooks) Bluethoth, RAM 1 GhZ
280 1:22 pm PDT, Jul 31 Christopher Kazior   Germany      
279 1:15 pm PDT, Jul 30 Michael J. Folise Washington United States now form factor, handwriting recognition (script) voice to tex regonition with noise cancelling headset silicon hard drive, maybe liegtweight version with two 8GB Compact Falsh slots, one for operating system, other for user files plus SD slot for use as "floppy". With modern low voltage processors could probably run on rechargeable AA batterys!
278 3:53 am PDT, Jul 21 Panos Kilias   Greece ASAP best tablet pc speed, more ram
277 12:05 pm PDT, Jul 19 Joe Rafferty   United Kingdom Yes within a split second, it probably wont be called the tc2100 as that is a HP server, xt2100 :) Detachable keyboard and an slim size, it can replace an A4 Lever block easily a ULV C2D w a Solid State HD and a higer res screen and i would be in a state of nirvana (Perhaps putting it on a diet??)
276 8:18 am PDT, Jul 19 George Vlachos   Greece   The best real tablet pc Faster CPU, 4G ram
275 6:47 am PDT, Jul 13 Sam Niyazi   Australia Quick-smartish. But not if exorbitantly priced! its a nb/tablet, umpc all in one! beautiful versatility HSDPA of course ;)
274 1:54 pm PDT, Jul 10 Anonymous Maryland United States IMMEDIATELY!!! Great form factor... have the option to disconnect and leave behind the keyboard. Can go slate, or laptop, or convertible style. LOVE IT!!! Would be wicked badass to have a super slim DVD/Blueray reader incorped into the keyboard as well as the hdd. THen just have a CF or SD slot on the slate! Have a decoupleable strap on back of slate for handhold.
273 7:56 am PDT, Jul 5 Anonymous   Australia straight away its so portable and i love the slate tablet gigabit, more ram, faster dual or quad core cpu, better res,hdmi,dedicated graphics
272 3:00 pm PDT, Jul 1 Anonymous   United Kingdom Immediately! Hybrid form factor, ease of use. And it is the only mobile computer I have never replaced - because I can't! I've upgraded it to 2GB with an SSD 64GB HDD, I can't get many more years out of it, I've had it for almost five. Gigabit NIC, x64 CPU, DVI.
271 3:57 am PDT, Jun 28 Werner Stucky   South Africa Yes The best form-factor ever! Fingerprint reader
270 1:17 am PDT, Jun 13 Anonymous Colorado United States As soon as it becomes available to the public It can convert between a slate tablet, a laptop tablet, and with the docking station, it becomes a desktop system and notepad Better processor, support for DDR2, pen that doesn't need battery, more powerful graphics, doesn't get hot, same design/look except maybe available in gray or black
269 7:14 pm PDT, Jun 9 Ellen M. Garza California United States Within this year, 2008. I have been looking for a computer like this for years. Ever since I purchased my HP Jornada and realized that I really needed a keyboard.  
268 10:49 am PDT, Jun 5 Jason Womack North Carolina United States immediately. Lightweight and extremely portable; I don't mind taking it EVERYWHERE; detachable keyboard is the distinguishing factor from the others of course. brighter display; better wireless hardware/drivers. Wireless connectivity is spotty at times.
267 1:47 pm PDT, May 31 Matt Buxton   United Kingdom As soon as I could afford one Even the superb motion computing tablets can't match the design of this machine. I miss the fold down convertible keyboard and the excellent jog wheel positioned for easy e-book reading bigger screen and faster, that's all
266 12:01 pm PDT, May 24 Michael DeSanJorge Florida United States When I see one that has a mix of new & old features & comes with an AMD chip. It's unique design & ablitly to be both a convertible &/ or stand alone slate. Ablitly to run 32bit & 64bit Windows, better GPU(ATI or Nvidia), atleast 160-200GB HDD space, Wireless A/B/G/N, & maybe a firewire port.
265 9:59 am PDT, May 22 Anonymous   United States Minor Outlying Islands      
264 2:39 pm PDT, May 20 William Baron California United States As soon as released! My company owns 5 of these and Im keeping them togather with tape and hope. They will need to be replaced soon, I hope HP comes to its senses and makes and improved version. The size, mobility. This is a unit for people on the go, who dont feel the need to cart drives and other nonsense around. Screen Size is perfect! Speed. Vista. Memory. Resolution increase for external monitor. Stick with NVIDIA!
263 9:36 am PDT, May 19 Anonymous Kansas United States Within six months of the release The screen/keyboard, of course! Increased speed, battery life.
262 9:23 pm PDT, May 12 Anonymous   Singapore In a few months I want a tablet! TC1*00 looks more elegant and thus more suitable for females. Can we have a white design?
261 1:12 pm PDT, May 11 smarks smarks   United Kingdom Would purchase one now. This weekend I have just replaced the motherboard of one of the 2 TC1100 I have with a secondhand M/B shipped from Singapore. All working correctly great news. The design, everything. cpu, memory, graphics, better power usage
260 7:46 pm PDT, May 6 Alex Ruíz   Mexico ASAP Portability, Style, fashion, XX century design, Faster Processor, More hard disk
259 8:59 pm PDT, Apr 29 joshua lenord   Australia NOW!!! the form factor love the portability i use it all the time for joting down little story ideas or little doodles its brilliant better battery life faster CPU better graphics firewire and wireless n
258 10:45 pm PDT, Apr 27 davi perez New York United States right away the size,design,color,specs bluetooth 2.0, fingerprint sensor, mac os.
257 12:45 am PDT, Apr 23 Adam Lukomski   Poland Right after launch Strictly speaking - design, the part that most laptop manufacturers tend to forget about. And usability when it comes to using it in slate form and transforming into laptop mode in a matter of seconds. CPU and mainboard. The rest was nearly perfect in old one.
256 1:27 pm PDT, Apr 4 jr sherlock   United Kingdom after a review the style of it basically upgrade to the tc1x00 series, an optical drive, ssd hdd even a 32gb one would be fine better battery life wifi n
255 9:11 am PDT, Mar 24 Anonymous   Singapore As soon as it comes out Design!!! Any of the newest technologies that fit in
254 12:07 pm PDT, Mar 21 Nicolle Colada   Canada   Within the next year and a half.  
253 1:43 am PDT, Mar 17 William Hartmann New Jersey United States As soon as it came out! Hybrid Notebook/Tablet Transmeta Processor again. Long battery life (3-4hrs)
252 6:28 am PST, Mar 8 Anonymous Armed Forces Pacific United States It would be as soon as it could reviewed and compared to the tc1100 and other more recent tablets. The most elegant tablet design ever. Apple should steal this design. longer battery life, lower heat, more processor power.
251 12:39 am PST, Mar 7 Mark Birnbaum Minnesota United States Immediately. No heat on the lap. Very quiet. 12" screen

Save the TC1x00 Line

We, the loyal customers of HP, ask that the TC1x00 line be reinstated and that an updated version be made available.  We have dollars in hand to spend on a new machine and no product in the market comes close to the wonderful design and engineering of the TC1x00 line.  Test us please by offering an updated version of the TC1x00; you will see how quickly they are taken from the shelves.

This petition is created using a TC1100 which was purchased as an upgrade to an older TC1100.  We love this machine!
