15" Nvidia Tegra Touchscreen Tablet

The prototype we’re looking at here is a Nvidia Tegra powered tablet with a resistive touchscreen display spanning somewhere around 15 to 16 inches. It runs Windows CE , the company behind the machine is ICD. This particular unit was built to try and convince T-Mobile to order some units – presumably to fit a 3g modem and bundle with a data package.

The device, being a protoype, wasnt’ as finished as a production unit, but nonetheless impressive. The overall construction is under an inch thin and the tablet is capable of 720p video playback. Even more impressiveas the excellent wireless recharge station base which can magnetically support the whole tablet in an upright position. It reminds us of what we imagined the Techcrunch tablet was to be (will be?), albeit a few inches larger.

This looks to be the shape of smartbooks / tablets to come. You can check out the video over at Engadget.
