Working together
Apart from being a revolutionary personal netbook, the Touch Book is designed to be reworkable and suit your specific business needs. What if you could take the product as is, remove some features, add others, adapt the case, modify the software, and finally sell it as part of your offer? In a nutshell:
If you need an affordable custom tablet for your project,
you can use the reference design of the Touch Book and get support from us.
We work with branded products and services companies that are looking to deliver great touch devices as part of their offerings. Working with these companies, Always Innovating uses its expertise to develop new devices matching custom product requirements. We take care of every stage: elaborate the design, develop the prototypes, and manufacture the final product.
Open source
Our team believes in the open source model and strongly supports it. The Touch Book comes with an optimized home-made Linux-based OS. Guided by openness and wide support, we provide natively multi-boot access on the device. With a simple finger press at startup, the Touch Book will run either our AI OS, Ubuntu, or Android. Mer, Gentoo have also been adapted to the Touch Book. Google Chrome OS and Maemo, in alpha, are on their way!
Following this philosophy, feel free to
access our existing code, and ask us for any help on building your own software.
