Tablet PCs' Future Uncertain | |
|
||
| Time: 00:00 EST/05:00 GMT | News Source: eWeek | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||
|
The fate of the pen-driven, portable PC category, which got a boost in 2002 when Microsoft Corp. first rolled out its Windows XP Tablet PC Edition software, is uncertain, as some analysts have begun to lower their long-term growth projections for the category and Microsoft remains mum about its future tablet operating system plans. Despite early expectations—the Tablet PC Edition OS provided an easier method of allowing people to navigate their computers with a pen, make digital annotations and capture handwriting, while a new "convertible" form factor was more like a traditional notebook—tablets have failed to woo mainstream business users and consumers as quickly or as easily as initially expected, market watchers say. | ||

| I know that this is a small quantity item but I don't know anyone that has a Tablet PC. I am a computer programmer and most of my friends are in the tech industry. This product has no buzz. |

| What timing. My company bought its FIRST tablet pc earlier today as a test of the capabilities. |
