The Touchbook, from Always Innovating The Touchbook, from Always Innovating, is described as a hybrid netbook / tablet. It’s been in production for a while, but now those that have pre-ordered are having their netbook/tablets shipped to them. In case you’ve forgotten exactly what the Touchbook consists of, here a refresher. The Touchbook packs a 8.9-inch, 1,024 x 600 touchscreen, a USB 802.11 b/g/n adapter, Bluetooth, a processor from Texax Instruments – the TI OMAP3530 CPU, and 512MB of memory (split 50 / 50 between RAM and NAND), plus a further 8GB of storage on an SD card. (There’s a full set of detailed specs after the break). The company’s website says it may take “several weeks” to fulfill all the pre-orders, and we’ll get a hands-on video as soon as someone sends us one! Read on for the full specs of the Always Innovating Touchbook.
