Do any of the Kindles, etc. have touch sensitive main screens? 'Tablet' isn't exactly a new term and has implied a large touchscreen for a long time now. Seems a reasonable distinction considering the difference in how you interact with the devices.
- orangecat 16y agoThe Nook is literally a 7" Android tablet. (Capacitive multitouch screen, same CPU and GPU as Droid X). And a pretty good one once you root it, which consists of inserting an SD card and turning it on.
- rkudeshi 16y agoThat's the Nook Color, actually. The Nook (the original one, which goes by simply 'Nook') is an e-reader with a 6" eInk screen (a Kindle clone, if you will).
- joebadmo 16y agoThe Nook does have a touch screen. And I think historically 'Tablet' has referred to pen-input devices, which aren't exactly the same as 'touch sensitive.'
