DIY 13.4″ Carbon Fiber Touchscreen Tablet PC – http://carbontablet.blogspot.com/

This is a project I have been working on in my spare time for the last few months. I wanted a Windows 7 touchscreen tablet with a large screen that could handle HD video and wasn’t too thick or power hungry. The build cost for this was around $600-700. I had to sit at a weird angle for filming so I had a couple issues with the touchscreen, but it was only becuase of my odd positioning. The touch responsiveness is acutally pretty good, not iPad good, but good enough for me . Enjoy! Check out my blog for more info carbontablet.blogspot.com

@Fhajad screen is 1366×768. not 1080. maybe the youtube video was set to stream at 1080, but it would downscale.

what is thats computer’s name?
where can i buy that computer in da internet?
Oh, man! Awesome job!
how did you make the mold? for the carbon fiber?
You should try out meego, or moblin on there, they were built for tablets.
Can I buy that off of you?
Honestly I never comment on peoples videos but this is amazong work. You should seriously consider finding a trustworthy person to handle getting a loan for mass production. That or propose the video to microsoft….well they might steal it but get this piece patented and go for it. You could make tons. Either way I am really impressed, truly innovative.

whats the battery life
Hehe… I don’t think you should take anything from all the people that are giving any sort of negative feedback regarding what you have accomplished slampana. You have made an awesome device that they wish they had an iota of the amount of talent you have shown in making it on yer ace! I’m pretty sure you could put any OS that runs on a PC on yer little beauty and it’d run a treat.
Fantastic work, I take my hat off to you sir.
Great job, too bad it wouldn’t be worth it to sell these given all the manual labor.
amazing
i am working on something similar everyone and i might sell it but we will see how it turns out. I expect 2 more weeks.
@LightxEdge I’m pretty sure WebOS was not designed for a 13.4″ screen.
