HCL MiLeap Y series tablet / UMPC in the wild

HCL managed to get our attention when it announced its MiLeap X series laptop and Y series tablet/UMPC
last month,
and now thanks to the Tech Ticker blog we have better look at the more
interesting of the two, the MiLeap Y. As you can see above, however,
the device is unsurprisingly a little less sleek looking than it was in
the polished press photos, but still far from an eyesore. What's more,
while it didn't delve into a full review, Tech Ticker did say that the
Y has a "good" build quality, and that the keys are "nicely spaced
out." Be sure to hit up the link below for plenty more pics, and decide
for yourself if it's worth the $800+ price tag.

A month back HCL announced its MiLeap seriesand today we got a chance to play with its tablet PC (Y Series). The Y
series tablets come loaded with a 7″ screen, 800 MHz Intel processor,
1GB RAM, 80GB HDD, card reader, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 2 USB ports, LAN and
a 1.3 megapixel camera. The model which we fiddled with is priced at Rs. 33,000 ($822). The leaptop has a good build quality and keys are nicely spaced out. To use its tablet functionalities, you can either use a stylus or the controls given besides the screen.

HCL MiLeap comes in this small briefcase type bag which is totally useless if you’re thinking of giving it some protection.
