|hi
|Just wondering if anyone has any idea on how to go about getting Tablets
|working on freebsd. Does any have any experience in this area?

in generally, the iTronix GoBook line is very easy to install FreeBSD on
to, CD-Rom and most of the hardware is recognised.

The laptops are very close to Intel and HP standard, specially the
Centronix line.
I use a GoBook IX260 II, and the installation with FreeBSD 4.11, 5.3 and
5.4-beta workes with out problems, even the Touch-screen workes, but
needs calibrating to get the pointer right.
Now, as far I understand, the Tablet GoBook is very much like a laptop,
just got the touch screen as main input device, rather than a keyboard.

I even managed to install Sun solaris-10 i386 and got it working very well.
in my case I'll wait for the FreeBSD-5.4-release to do my final
installation on the 2nd 20Gb HD. (Dual-boot with XP on 1st and
FreeBSD-5.4 works very well.)
