Tablet PCs are getting the lion’s share of attention lately, “smartbooks”–laptop-like devices with advanced smartphone processors and pared-down operating systems–are attempting to build some momentum, too. The Compaq AirLife 100 looks like many Netbooks, but it differs in several ways: It has a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor instead of an Intel Atom, comes with 3G wireless built-in, and runs Android OS. The AirLife 100 also has a resistive 10.1-inch touchscreen 1,024×600-pixel resolution TFT display, but only 16GB of solid-state internal storage, although an included SD card slot can help matters slightly. HP promises an “all-day” battery life of 12 hours/10 days of standby, plus always-on Internet through a combination of its 3G antenna and 802.11b/g Wi-Fi.
