| Review summary | We can't think of a single good reason to buy the HTC Shift. It's so bad it's almost unbelievable. It's too expensive, its keyboard will give you RSI, and it's so slow it'll drive you to throw it -- or yourself -- out of a window in frustration. Buy this at your peril Read full review |

Fujitsu Siemens' top-of-the-range slate-style Tablet PC packs in plenty of features and is generally well designed. But it's pricey, runs hot and could prove too bulky and heavy for extended mobile use Read full review |
This is a handsome and very usable Tablet PC, thanks to its excellent screen and keyboard. Battery life and performance are both a little disappointing, though, and the price becomes steep as you add in the options Read full review |
