    Hi, I just got myselft a used tablet pc for $200 off ebay. It has a 1.2GHz pentium M, 2GB of ram and a screen resolution of 800*600. I'm looking for games I could put on it. Since it obviously doesn't have a keyboard, I'm limited to to RPG and RTS games to support 800*600. Got any suggestions? I've already installed Baldur's Gate 2 which is a blast.

    Kotor should work but you might have to dial down a few of the graphical settings. This is assuming that the graphics in the Tablet are T&L capable.

    Other than emulating T&L using 3danalyzer, that game probably wouldn't work then.
