The only thing keeping this from being a truly top-notch screen is that
the resolution is capped at 1,280 x 800, and that's not even totally
HP's fault: after all, Atom processors don't even support resolutions
beyond 1,366 x 768. Besides, the company says that its corporate
customers aren't demanding higher resolution anyway. And who are we to
argue with HP's marketing department?
Oh, and in case you're wondering, the ElitePad supports pen input,
just like other Windows 8 tablets aimed at the corporate world. Because
the digitizer is made by Atmel, though, and not Wacom, you can't just
sub in any old pen if you lose the one you bought from HP. That pen is
sold separately for $49 and indeed, we didn't get a chance to test the
ElitePad with it.
On paper, the ElitePad 900 has almost everything we'd expect from a
business tablet: pen support, security features like TPM and a dock with
Ethernet and extra ports. It's offered with a wider-than-usual range of
accessories, including useful goodies like a second battery and
keyboard case. Not to mention, it's one of the best-looking tablets we've ever seen, and that's definitely not something we demand from enterprise tech.
