Leaked: Prototype Windows 7-powered HP Slate Found On YouTube?

By on September 24, 2010 12:19 pm

Most people will have probably seen HP’s video demonstration of their still-in-development Slate device floating around somewhere on YouTube, but this particular clip is probably the closest one can get to actually seeing the real thing in action. Apparently, a YouTube member known only as ‘x313xkillax’ has posted a short video in which he takes a prototype Slate for a hands-on.

Most people will have probably seen HP’s video demonstration of their still-in-development Slate device floating around somewhere on YouTube, but this particular clip is probably the closest one can get to actually seeing the real thing in action. Apparently, a YouTube member known only as ‘x313xkillax’ has posted a short video in which he takes a prototype Slate for a hands-on.

The uploader starts off by showing off the Slate’s design, along with its expandability ports.

 
Finally, the Slate is turned on and the uploader shows off the device’s web browsing capabilities, which includes what seems to be a Flash video playing on YouTube.

Of course, it is not possible to verify the credibility of the video, and whether it is an elaborate hoax. But on our part, it does come across as a rather convincing demonstration of a Windows 7-based tablet.

The full video is available below: however, you may want to view it soon, as it is impossible to tell when the clip might get removed.
