Tablet XP resides on the Hard Disk Drive and Windows Mobile resides on the ROM. Windows Mobile boots instantly and Tablet XP boots and hibernates like any other Tablet XP OS. We are adding a feature in the production version that accesses the Hard Disk Drive from Windows Mobile WITHOUT booting or bringing Tablet XP out of hibernate for fast disk access. This mitigates the normal boot time of Tablet XP.
