    Currently I have an X61t, and I'm really interested to upgrade it to X200t especially when they offering the enhanced muti-touch screen.

    However, I do struggle with it portability, I'm also look forward for the S10-3t since is lighter and smaller and much cheaper.

    Any on had experience with S10-3t? Is it getting hot when it run?

    I really want an tablet... anyone has suggestion?

    Keep what you got. A X200t won't offer much of a performance bonus unless you plan to get a SSD.

    Moving from an x61T to a S10-3t sounds like a lateral move at best and almost certainly a downgrade.

    The S10-3t uses an Atom processor (much slower than your LV C2D) and has a capacitive screen (NOT Wacom). I would not recommend it to an existing tablet user.

    You could get an x200T, but as Zaz said the performance advantage is limited. It probably makes more sense to hold off for an upcoming x201T.

    Even better - spend the money you would use for a new computer on an SSD. The performance increase is staggering. I would suspect that your X61t with an SSD will (at least) feel faster than either of the other two without.

    Also - the SSD can be put into your next laptop when a new machine makes more sense.

    +1 for the SSD. The X61 is still a very capable tablet IMO.
