![]() ![]() ![]() Depending on the week, the price goes from $5 to $20 but there is a free version too. One Chat is a native Mac app and has a nice look and feel. It does include a lot of services though and does allow custom sites. It doesn’t feel as polished as the other two and it doesn’t include spell check yet. Rambox is another free Electron option that works well. Just refer some friends and then you won’t have to pay for it. Manageyum is a great choice as it’s stable and it includes all the services you need. The downside is you get a free demo and then you either need to refer people or pay to use it. If your service isn’t listed, you can still add it. You can also add in custom services/websites. Franz keeps it visible and just grays it out. One nice feature here is that if you disable a service, it’s hidden from view. Manageyum is another good choice also built with Electron. If it wasn’t for that, it’d be one of the best choices. Once this happens you need to uninstall the app and start over. It’s built on Electron, it’s free, and works really well. I’ve tested out quite a few and most are lacking features or stability.įranz is probably the most popular. I'll figure it out, or not, soon.One app for all your chat windows seems to be the new thing right now. I'm really not sure about how can a tablet help me. I'll write again when I have more experience with it. I'm curious about sleep state power consumption. I had no time for testing it, but I do not believe that it would reach 4 hours of non intensive use. The docking fits the tablet, looking like a closed notebook. The stick mouse is fun but sometimes it is easier to touch the screen. The keys are delicious to press and are not noisy. It could be thinner and lighter but it is ok. I'm happy with Linux on Iconia Tab W501P. The software keyboard itself is very immature and many times it does not appear when it is necessary. I was surprised that Fedora 16 comes with on-screen keyboard that shows up only when typing is needed. The user interface is almost as fast as on Core i7 but tasks like starting Libreoffice are much, much slower. But the fast graphics of the tablet really helps on giving the "sensation" of high speed. I would not use the tablet for compiling Kernels, but it fits for reading, writing and surfing.Ĭomparing the Iconia tab W501P with Toshiba R830 Core i7 notebook is not fair. It is light year ahead of 2008 Aspire One with single core Atom. I'll check what can be done.Īfter tuning the Kernel to use noop scheduler for the SSD the overall performance is not bad. Rotation sensor, bluetooth and muti-touch did not work out of the box. 3G modem, wired and wireless devices, single touch screen, two web cams, sleep state, and speed step. The frame rate is perfect for resolutions up to 480p. Fullscreen play of Full-HD youtube videos did not went as I was expecting. Image quality and touchscreen precision are qualities of this tablet. It just works without needing calibrate anything. It has resolution of 1280x800 with great colors and bright. After installing all the crap, Windows 7 were so slow that I felt I that I shouldn't have bought the tablet.īut I noticed that the screen and it's touch sensor are great. It took 40 minutes installing toolbars and other useless software. But the ton of crap that came pre-installed with the tablet is not good. I think that Microsoft does good software, with bad business model, but good software. The box itself is heavy, as the tablet and it's keyboard are very well packed but "light weight" is not a feature for the W501P.Įven being a Linux guy, I do not hate Windows. ![]() The main differences to W500 is that the W501P has 3G modem and is equipped with AMD C-60 instead of AMD C-50.Īccording to, the C-60 can run up to 1333 MHz and it's GPU can run up to 400 MHz, while C-50 maximums are 1000MHz for the CPU and 276 MHz for the GPU.Īs the box reached me, I realized that it is "too" heavy. I'm at Czech Republic, and I ran to the first Acer Iconia TAB W501P that was available at. I was expecting that it would be possible to play Full-HD flash movies at 30 fps. I was tremendously curious about the performance of both AMD C-60 processor and it's ATI GPU. Software: Microsoft Office 2010 preloaded (purchase a license key to activate) ![]()
