The last OnTheRun with Tablet PCs podcast is big news

You may have listened to the final OnTheRun with Tablet PCs podcast by now.  The podcast that I did with Marc Orchant came to an end with the untimely death of Marc earlier this month.  I expected heavier than normal listenership due to its being the final production but I couldn't figure out until this morning why it has been even heavier than expected.  Messing around on the web as I usually do I found this which I believe explains the high listenership:

This is gratifying because it shows how respected Marc's reputation was in not only the tech world but in the major news outlets.  Awesome!

This is the final episode of OnTheRun with Tablet PCs podcast that has enjoyed a run of over two years.  Marc Orchant and I had realized that we could not continue to do the show with our busy schedules and were planning a final show when Marc passed away.  I still wanted to do a final show to thank all of our listeners who have followed the show over its long run so this final show is a mix of highlights from the entire show history.  Mixing the show was difficult for me to do but I wanted to give the listeners one last listen at the wit and genius of Marc Orchant.

Thanks for supporting us and goodbye Marc, my friend.

Special thanks to Tiedye Keith for the great song "Vulnerable" with vocals by Tony Lindsay of Santana.  As stated by my friend T Lewis, great cartoonist from the Over The Hedge comic strip, the song Vulnerable has never had such meaning as it does now.

Marc Orchant and James Kendrick are back with show #40, yes, Marc is back for this show!  Our hosts have a typically far-ranging discussion that covers diverse topics relating to the Tabletscape.  They look analytically at the big news this week of the Acer/ Gateway merger and how this might impact the Tablet PC space.  Dell is entering the Tablet market later this year and the impact on the enterprise market is fodder for meaningful discussion.  Marc wants to know when we're going to see an application that is fitting of the capabilities of the Tablet PC and laments the fact we haven't seen one yet.

Tablet PCs aren't penetrating the enterprise much but employees of those enterprises see the benefits of the Tablet immediately upon exposure.  Maybe Dell will help penetrate that market so employees can get their hands on them.

James is testing the HP 2710p Tablet PC and discusses how this Tablet straddles the enterprise and consumer space.  Does the 2710p stack up?  Inquiring minds want to know.  The conclusion the hosts reach is that the trackstick is "flatly nubby". You have been warned.

Eric Mack interviewed Marc a while back and examined the contents of Marc's mobile gear bag and has posted a series of podcasts on his web site.  The podcasts are well worth a listen so go grab them without further adieu.

• Orchant interview #1
• Orchant interview #2
• Orchant interview #3

Marc discusses his new blogging gig at BlogNation and the upcoming Office 2.0 conference where industry luminaries are meeting to discuss the mobilization of Web 2.0.  Marc will be covering the conference on BlogNation and I'm sure he'll come back with some great insights for future shows.

Enjoy the show!

OnTheRun with Tablet PCs podcast #38- all about the Lenovo x61 Tablet

Listen here ( MP3, 21.3 MB, 62 minutes) or

Subscribe to the show with this link  (RSS)

Marc Orchant and James Kendrick both have recently picked up Lenovo ThinkPad x61 Tablet PCs and in show #38 discuss the x61 from stem to stern.  James has the SXGA+ (1440x1040) screen and Marc has the MultiTouch XGA screen and the two compare the virtues of each.

James' x61 has the Intel Turbo Memory option, which is a flash memory cache designed to speed up disk access and program loading.  Marc has the integrated WWAN option instead.  Join our hosts for a roundabout conversation that covers all aspects of the first ThinkPad Tablet PC with the Santa Rosa Core 2 Duo processor.

Both hosts discuss how they used different methods to get the information and settings from their old Tablet PC over to the ThinkPad.  James used the Belkin Easy Transfer cable and Marc used the included Lenovo System Migration Assistant to accomplish the same thing.  The Belkin is available for use on non-ThinkPad PCs.

One of the most useful utilities you will find for any PC is Anagram and the two discuss the latest version which is now Vista and Outlook 2007 compatible.  You will also hear that the program has been optimized for the Tablet PC.

Marc Orchant and James Kendrick are back with show #36 and shout-outs are in order all around with the shipping of Marc's book the Unofficial Guide to Outlook 2007, a must read for all Outlook users.  The shout-outs continue with this show dedicated to the newest Tablet PC MVP, Kevin Tofel!  Well deserved and long overdue.  Next up on the shout-out list is Josh Einstein who has released the OneNote Calendar utility that is a must-have for all OneNote users.  The dynamic duo wax poetically about the Asus R2H, one of the most capable UMPCs out there. Another shout-out goes to Warner Crocker for his relentless Vistamization of his Asus UMPC.  Marc professes love for the Lenovo ThinkPad x60t convertible tablet and tells us why.  Shout-out # whatever goes out to Michael Scherotter formerly of Mindjet who recently joined Microsoft. JK is hotly awaiting the availability of the new Motion LE1700 slate Tablet PC and discusses why.  JK forgets which podcast he's doing for a split-second, can you find it?

Marc Orchant and James Kendrick are back with show #36 and shout-outs are in order all around with the shipping of Marc's book the Unofficial Guide to Outlook 2007, a must read for all Outlook users.  The shout-outs continue with this show dedicated to the newest Tablet PC MVP, Kevin Tofel!  Well deserved and long overdue.  Next up on the shout-out list is Josh Einstein who has released the OneNote Calendar utility that is a must-have for all OneNote users.  The dynamic duo wax poetically about the Asus R2H, one of the most capable UMPCs out there. Another shout-out goes to Warner Crocker for his relentless Vistamization of his Asus UMPC.  Marc professes love for the Lenovo ThinkPad x60t convertible tablet and tells us why.  Shout-out # whatever goes out to Michael Scherotter formerly of Mindjet who recently joined Microsoft. JK is hotly awaiting the availability of the new Motion LE1700 slate Tablet PC and discusses why.  JK forgets which podcast he's doing for a split-second, can you find it?

Marc Orchant and James Kendrick sit down (finally) for show #34 and have a chance to ruminate on finally meeting face to face at the Tablet PC meetup at the CES recently in Las Vegas.  Both hosts are taller than they thought and give a good wrapup and discuss impressions of the CES.  There were two new Tablet PCs announced at the CES and the hosts give their thoughts about the two devices.  UMPCs are enablers, not limiters as some reviewers seem to think.

Enjoy the show!

Marc Orchant and James Kendrick sit down (finally) for show #33 and talk about the new Fujitsu P1610 mini-Tablet PC with the 8.9" touchscreen that incorporates near perfect palm rejection technology.  Marc is heading to Finland- will he use the Tablet PC backlight as a flashlight for his upcoming visit?  The discussion quickly switches over to all the Tablet PC owners who are trying to install Vista RTM on their precious, and the dynamic duo touches on whether they will be installing Vista on their production devices any time soon.  Office 2007 file compatibility issues are in the news and Chuck Frey has a new mind-mapping book that Marc likes plus there's an interview with Eric Mack discussing mind-mapping on a Tablet PC.  If you listen closely you'll get a tip for using MindManager on a touch-screen Tablet PCs that lets you ink away in that fine program.  It's a good show and Marc and James think you'll like it.

Enjoy the show!
