Dave Kingston blogs some tremendous advise for IT departments that are considering Tablet PC deployments.
First, he outlines the benefits of deploying Tablets. He starts out simply: “If you don’t know what a tablet PC is you should check them out.” My favorite quote: Tablets are “9 million times (scientific calculation) better than a PDA or other small screen device for inputting and reading information.”
But Dave isn’t all hyperbole. In a follow-up post he gives some real-world Tablet issues to think about and plan for. He suggests:
* Tablet pens without batteries
* View anywhere displays
* Talk with ISVs about what software they support on the Tablet.
* Avoid reworking all your forms just for the Tablet
Great read.
Thanks for the props.
I have more (and more specific) information forthcoming. I’m working on some reviews of specific hardware that I have extensive experience with (the Toshiba Portege, and the Motion) and compare them to others that I have some experience with.
Great. Looking forward to it.
