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!

Marc Orchant and James Kendrick are back with show #39, no wait, Marc's not here!  Marc had technical difficulties that made recording impossible but we both agreed that it was important to produce a show since it's been, like, forever since we did one.  Marc sends his regrets but he'll be back for the next show.

Congratulations to Marc for his new blogging gig at BlogNation, a new startup blog network that looks like a promising source of useful information.  They will be successful with Marc on board, that's for sure.

This show focuses on the state of the Tabletscape with a look at the new Tablets that have appeared so far this year and a look forward to what we can expect for the last half.  The discussion looks at Tablets first and then at UMPCs to cover the whole inkscape.

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 #27 after a very long, unrestful hiatus and we have some catching up to do.  The latest build of Vista seems to be making a lot of people happy, especially Tableteers like Kevin Tofel.  Everyone must be aware of the big battery recall going on now affecting Dell, Sony, and Apple customers.  Hey, these are the three big OEMs who don't make Tablet PCs.  Hmmm, coincidence?  I think not.  Marc is loving the new Object Desktop 2007 for simulating Vista Glass on his XP Tablet.  Matt Miller visits Mobile Tech Manor and watches my HP tc1100 die.  HP warranty service came to the rescue and in just a few hours the tc1100 came home feeling all better.  James used a Sony U71 with the 5 inch screen as a replacement while waiting for the return of the tc1100 and the experience has him jonesing for a UMPC. 

Does the Asus R2H really have a screen resolution of 1280x768, a first for a UMPC.  James may have his hands on a Samsung Q1 with a flash memory hard drive.  The two new TabletKiosk eo UMPCs look pretty sweet and the one with the Pentium M gives Marc and James pause for consideration.  We would never tether our Palm Treos to our Tablets since that would violate the Terms of Service (TOS).  Marc gets a Palm Treo 700p and to his surprise finds out he now has EVDO coverage.  Can you use OneNote Mobile with a TAblet PC to help you move?  TabletKiosk is hitting the road to show off their new UMPCs.  Allegiance Technology Partners is throwing a Tablet PC Webinar soon so don't forget to sign up if you want to participate.

Marc Orchant and James Kendrick are back with show #26! Listener Jonas Knipper sent us a great email with a question and a suggestions so this is the Jonas Knipper show!  Jonas wants to know what slate will fit his needs for school and he wants us to talk about the software each of us uses on our Tablets so this entire show is devoted to those two topics.  We discuss a lot of programs that we use and get into why we use them so maybe you can find a gem you are not currently using.  Thanks for writing us, Jonas.  Marc tells us about slickdeals.net, a great spot to find super cheap deals on all kinds of hardware and accessories, and we talk a little bit about the discontinued HP tc1100 that you can still buy.  Are they building new ones or not?  We make an open offer for any HP executive who wants to come on the show and discuss the tc1100.

Congratulations to Josh and Heather Einstein on the birth of their child, Jacob, already becoming a Tablet PC addict.  Happy Birthday to the first lady of the Tablet PC, Lora Heiny, who turned 21 this week.  Marc discusses his reacquantance with the Toshiba M200 since he's been using it lately and compares it to the Gateway he lost when he changed jobs.  We talk about battery life of UMPCs and whether it's better to have an extended battery or a second standard battery.  Marc's son Jason appears in a Microsoft Student ad and is known as Mini-Marc, poor kid.  :)  In our discussion on Vista on the Tablet PC we question why we are getting no advanced notices about any Vista-ready slates on the horizon from OEMs like Motion. Tracy Hooten goes slate.  James rants on the lack of UMPC advertising- history repeats itself.  Marc and James offer two good ways to easily enable Flicks on touch screen Tablet PCs like UMPCs.

Marc Orchant and James Kendrick are back after a hiatus with show #24! On this show there's a podcast first as we euthanize a dog on the air (just kidding).  Marc has a new gig with Foldera and we discuss how his mobile computer needs might change with the new project.  The question comes up slate versus convertible versus UMPC and Marc explains his thoughts what he might be looking for soon, and if you are a regular listener you might be surprised.  James might be looking for a new slate and likes the Electrovaya Scribbler 3100, not a UMPC.  Marc and James both take a poke at junkware that comes with downloadable software.  Dell provides an option on their online store to pay extra to get a new device with no junkware pre-installed, which is important as Dell is rumored to be working on a UMPC.

Marc Orchant and James Kendrick are back with a special show #22! We have a distinguished guest, Joel Rasmussen, the producer of a documentary film soon to be released nationally in the US.  Before the Music Dies is a unique look at the independent music industry and promises to be a great film for music lovers.  The film features commentary from such music greats as Dave Matthews, Erikah Badu, Bonnie Raitt, Branford Marsalis and Elvis Costello and was screened at the recent SXSW festival in Austin.  Joel is an interesting person to chat with and we had a lot of fun talking about music and the big label music industry that makes it so difficult for good indies to get a career going.

Tablet enthusiasts and regular listeners who are wondering what we are doing talking about music on the OnTheRun with Tablet PC show can rest easy.  Joel discusses how he used his Tablet PC and MindManager during the making of the film and describes at length how the combo enable him to conduct better meetings with good results.  He is using an older Gateway M275 Tablet PC so we have a chat about what he should be looking at for an upgrade.  It is a good show with never a dull moment so give it a listen and see if you agree.  Thanks to Joel for coming on the show with us and we wish him all the best with his film, Before the Music Dies.  Keep up with the film and the tour schedule on the official web site.

Join Marc Orchant and James Kendrick as we take our weekly stroll through the Tabletscape.  Buzz Bruggeman of ActiveWords stopped by Marc's house on his cross-country road trip to Seattle and we just had to sit him down for an interview.  Buzz describes the devastation in New Orleans he witnessed as he visited the city on his way across the country and explains it's impossible to fully understand the problems there until you see them for yourself.  He had some good things to say about his visit to Motion Computing and his impressions of the diminutive LS800.  He broke some news that ActiveWords is being tested on the soon to be released DualCor cPC that will debut at CES in a few weeks.  Of course we discussed ActiveWords at length along with the InkPad for Tablet users.  Buzz takes us on an audio trip through the benefits of ActiveWords on the Tablet and it is a great show you don't want to miss.

Buzz generously offers a FREE copy of ActiveWords to anyone listening to this show so listen carefully to see how to claim your free copy.  This is a $50 value and we thank Buzz for his generosity for making this offer to our listeners.  PLEASE NOTE- THIS OFFER EXPIRES ON 12/31/2005 so you better hurry!

OnTheRun with Tablet PCs #5- the Lyn and Olga interview

Tablet PC enthusiasts should be familiar with the web site Tabletology by now and if you are not you should be.  Olga and Lyn from Nova Scotia are the creative talents behind Tabletology who have become quite famous by taking their HP tc1100 Tablet PCs to far off lands and capturing photos of the Tablet having good times.  Lyn and Olga joined Marc Orchant and James Kendrick in our virtual studio and the resultant chat is entertaining and quite a lot of fun.  Olga offered up the very first poem ever recited on the OnTheRun with Tablet PCs Show, a true lament over the demise of the HP tc1100 product line.  The rest of our discussion covered some philosophical topics, a great idea for Mindjet to make MindManager better on the Tablet PC, and an interesting look at TheBrain for organizing your files and projects.  Enjoy the show, we sure had a good time recording it for you.  Thank you ladies girls guys for coming on the big show.

OnTheRun with Tablet PCs- #4

It is show time again and OnTheRun with Tablet PCs #4 finds Marc Orchant and James Kendrick having a discussion about many things pertaining to the Tablet PC.  Marc gives us an update about his trip to New York City for the Weblogs, Inc. blogger retreat and fills us in how the Gateway Convertible Notebook fared in the Big Apple.  We discuss the Office 12 beta release that went live this past week and what features each of us is looking forward when the suite gets released next year that will help us get the most out of our Tablet PCs.  The folks at Mindjet have been busy releasing plug-ins for MindManager which can help maximize the use of that program for Tablet owners and we talk about a couple of those.  HP has pulled the venerable tc1100 hybrid Tablet PC off their website driving home the fact the successful model line is truly discontinued and we talk about that a little, including a tip for present owners to make sure they can find the accessories they need.

OnTheRun with Tablet PCs #3- Robert Scoble interview

Marc Orchant and James Kendrick chatted for an hour with the number one Tablet PC evangelist, Robert Scoble, who did the interview sitting on the red couch. Robert was raring to talk about a whole lot of wide-ranging topics and everyone will take a lot away from this show. He talks about his Toshiba M205 and M4 and elaborates which one he carries and why. We talk about the Gateway Convertible Notebook and the improvements being noted with Tablet PCs appearing in more retail space. Scoops of note- the MSN Virtual Earth team are releasing something really cool in the next few days and the Microsoft Tablet PC team will have a major announcement "really soon" (we tried but Robert wouldn't say exactly when). Future prediction from Robert- next year will be the year of HDTV so get ready.

OnTheRun with Tablet PCs #2- Gateway Tablet tour

Marc Orchant and I had a lot of fun devoting this show to the Gateway Convertible Notebook (that's Tablet PC to you and me).

I have been using mine for about a month so together we point out all the features and knobs and buttons on the Gateway. As far as we know this is the first podcast ever recorded on a Gateway so enjoy the show! Don't forget to leave us feedback about how you like the new show.
