VIDEO: The History of the HP Slate.

Still no specs but how about a history lesson? HP and Microsoft have kept pretty quiet about the HP Slate that Steve Ballmer launched in Vegas earlier this month. Other than it being a Windows 7 device, there was little else to go on. Unfortunately it doesn"t look like HP has plans to share more information anytime soon. But, if you"re desperate to see the device again and feel like a five minute history lesson, check out the video below. HP"s CTO Phil McKinney tells viewers how the company started out with an ereader-like device five years ago and, over time, gradually built up the device to the "media-rich" tablet it is today. Check it out and let us know if it sounds like something you"d buy! HP Slate History (via Endadget)
