IBM Tablet with ESS ad in Wall Street Journal

No mention of Wave ETS compatability but questionable statements by IBM, and also a direct link to Msft. See below.

WSJ, Thursday, 7/14/2005, Full page IBM ad on back of section B.

IBM Tablet Thinkpad PC with Embedded Security Subsystem (Requires software download), and optional biometric fingerprint reader. The ad states, "Noone offers more security as a standard feature".

False adverstising? Has IBM Ever heard of Dell, HP, Fujitsu?? I remember SKS saying that IBM's ESS will turn your system into a brick without recovery tools. User and readers beware.

Also says see tabletpc.com for a tour. Well, it takes you to Msft's XP Tablet PC Edition home page. Click on front and center Announcing Thinkpad X41 and go to IBM Tablet site. Click on take a tour then security to see fingerprint reader, embedded chip, and once again they claim the most secure notebook available today.

Go back to the X41 main page and scroll near bottom to TCG compliant ESS 2.0 software. Click on Client Security Software and download page not available. Might have to be using a Thinkpad to access this page.
