Default HP Tuners/EFI Live with WinXP Tablet PC Ed.??

Has anyone tried using it on a tablet PC?

Can the reps from both companies verify whether it will work with WinXP Tablet PC edition or not?

It's a pain with a decent sized Laptop too! I'm interested in this prospect as well.

You can just mount the screen on the dash and use bluetooth or infrared wireless keyboard, MUCH easier and "spacier(?)" than having a laptop on your lap. Models like HP tc1000, or tc1100 only weighs like 3-4lbs. VERY LIGHT.



Other than tuning, I plan on using MS Streets & Trip for GPS navigation. I also heard that MS is working on incorporating live traffic flow update for their software, when and if there's access to internet. That's p.i.m.p.

I tune using a Toughbook CF-73 touchscreen. It is certainly not the cheapest laptop available, but it well worth the extra expense if you ask me.

Touchscreen tuning is

The handle is also very nice, when you have your hands full when getting off the dyno.

Now that is Pimp! I'm considering getting the LS800 by Motion which is only 2.2 lbs. I like the way you attached it to the dash.
