WebPAD MetroeBook Readers/Hardware |
|
The primary function of the WebPAD SP3GX01 system is an Internet browser, but other applications can be easily added, providing remote PC capability. The latest WebPAD (the WebPAD Metro) uses the Microsoft Windows CE 3.0 operating system, supporting the use of many ebook and document viewers.
The 9.5 x 11.75 inch tablet has an interactive 10 inch DSTN screen (800 x 600) and weighs approximately 3 pounds.
It consists of an interactive touch screen, scroll pad and several user-configurable buttons. Additionally, several ports have been added to the side of the tablet to allow for connectivity to USB devices (i.e., external keyboard) and other types of devices such as headphones and an external microphone.
