That mystery tablet PC that appeared at the end of Intel's presentation at IDF last night is no classmate, or super-powered Speak&Spell either: It's a Panasonic Toughbook-alike tablet. More specifically it's a "Mobile Clinical Assistant" device, aimed at doctors and nurses who are under an increasing burden of digital data and imagery nowadays, though there's not much more info available than that fact yet. Shucks... and there we were hoping for something a little more Classmate-y. [Ubergizmo]

See, rather than unveil details of the next game in the halo series - what Peter Jackson may be doing with the franchise, perhaps - we’re presented with a ‘teaser video’ that may or may not point the way forward for Halo 3. No actual in-game action of any sort is featured and Master Chief is nowhere to be seen. Instead we’re presented with images of a futuristic city that appears to be under attack from an enemy that’s arriving by metallic meteor - War of the Worlds-style - and flashed up messages urging us to ‘please remain calm’ and to ‘Prepare to drop’. All very intriguing, if not exactly enlightening.
