Fujuitsu C-500 tablet

Picked it up on ebay for under 200 with wireless card. Works beautifully for client server mode. Only negative is you must press buttons with your finger nail. Took all of about 2 minutes to get used that, even if your like me and cut them down to nothing, lol. Has a 500mhz p3 celeron , 256MB Ram 800x600 res screen. I've had no slowdown using Lock-On active modules. Best thing thats ever happened to my flight simming.

Wow, that seems like a sweet deal. How much was shipping? An entire touchscreen pc for under $200 US dollars??

I got my Innovatek TM-868 8" touchscreen shipped to me off ebay all for $165. And I have to run that in Local Mode and use up about 8meg? for TB and another 10-30meg of memory for the profile that I am using. Not too bad but Client/Server is the way to go if you want to free up resources...

I'd call it a decent deal, ebay was littered with them. All P3 some 8" screens some 10". Just do a quick search on fujitsu tablet and you should get a ton of hits. Just did the search and yup they're all over the place, nearly all the P3's are under 200. Helluva deal for what we're doing! Instant client/server setup under 2 bills!

Yea, nice cheap client/server setup. And not just for TB, but for everything. You could run some devicelink gauges, watch tutorial videso, documentation.. whatever without using more memory on your game rig. Sweet for that price....

Can you plug an external monitor into it?

No external monitor as is, at least for the model I got, but there are docking stations for them that have the full array of inputs and outputs.
