With a 14.1-inch screen and an integrated optical drive, the hefty 6.7-pound Acer TravelMate C310 looks like an average mainstream laptop. But it's a convertible tablet; flip the display around, and you can write and draw directly on the screen. Though it's too big to hold in your hand for an extended period of time, if you want a tablet for meetings and the occasional trip, the TravelMate C310 delivers enough performance and battery life to suit your needs. If you don't mind working on a smaller screen and doing without an optical drive, we recommend the 3.6-pound ThinkPad X41 tablet as a much more portable alternative.
The TravelMate C310 has an impressive selection of ports compared with those of other (usually smaller) tablets. They include VGA, S-Video, four-pin FireWire, and three USB 2.0 ports (two side by side and one along the right edge). The headphone and microphone jacks are in back. A 4-in-1 card reader recognizes Memory Stick/Memory Stick Pro, MultiMediaCard, and Secure Digital (SD) formats, and the tablet also has a Type II PC Card slot. Other connections include Bluetooth, modem, Gigabit Ethernet, and 802.11b/g Wi-Fi. The tablet lacks security features such as a fingerprint reader or a Trusted Platform Module, which appear on many business-oriented machines, including the ThinkPad X41 tablet.
