    A tablet PC is a portable personal computer with a touch screen that runs computer applications together with Wi-Fi capability. Ultra-thin portable computers have been around for a while.
    New technologies enable devices, such as the iPhone, to function much like mini tablet PCs, with Wi-Fi Internet capability together with advanced phone technology. The Samsung tablet PC, the Galaxy, operates using the Android OS (operating system). These and other multifunctional smartphone devices are fully functional cell phones with Internet capabilities. They can store lots of information and can be used to download a variety of useful and fun applications. New smartphones may feature larger screens and other capabilities.

    So, are you asking a question, or making a statement?

    I don't know, but it smells like spam to me.

    Yes sounds like spam, but if they are looking for answer, the Dell Streak 5 was a combination tablet and phone, believe put out by t-mobile. And the Dell streak 7 has the capability of inserting a sim card which I believe would just give it access to the cell networks for data, not sure if it would give it full phone capability. And why would you want to hold a 7 inch tablet up to your ear to make a call.

    Yeah, it seems kinda spammy, but I left it be for the moment on the off chance that it might be a legitimate question. If someone comes back with some shill then I will delete & ban.

    .
    ASUS actually has a tablet with removable phone, which I think is an interesting idea, because you only need one cellular subscription/SIM card:

    That PadFone looks cool. I wonder how close they are to a release date, and how much will it be?
