Tablet PC Has Many Potential Uses
Frankly no one wants to carry a heave clp
board around with them...not matter how slick and multi
functional the clip board maybe it's still a clip board. And future
tech such as folding screens will make the tablet form well
obsolete.


The more popular Tablet PC form factor is the flip screen with keyboard ? making it both effectively a fully functional laptop, as well as a tablet. Right now, most people find the laptop configuration, the one they use more, but the tablet configuration is invaluable in the other scenarios in which they use their computers. The tablet configuration is invaluable when reading ebooks; marking up documents; when in meetings and taking notes, etc.; when in classrooms, conferences, or other places where taking down handwritten notes is more effective. The tablet configuration is also great for doctors and nurses when they do examinations and make their rounds. The Tablet PC is great for people in general when they engage in creative processes like: brainstorming engineering or scientific ideas, or music or literature compositions. The tablet configuration is also great when doing ad hoc things like taking personal notes that include drawings and media content, or going over to your coworker?s desk, and talking over a problem, while using diagrams, or marking up a document during the process. The tablet configuration is great for sales and other people who want to present information to their clients in a rich, flexible way. In other words, the possible uses of the Tablet PC are staggering, and the Tablet PC promises to take computing much more deeper into our lives, than a regular laptop ever could.
