Re: Do you use a Tablet PC?

We have 16 Gateway convertible tablets in our environment. Overall they have done the job. I wish I would have had more time to look at the different options, but I was pressed up against a wall. I think their life span isn't going to last what we want them to. Mostly because I could only get them with 512MB of RAM. At first they were quoted with 256 MB of RAM. I would have been shot had they come with just that. I should have kept looking and held out for the 1gig at least.

Oh well, live and learn. They are working quite well, but I think the tablet features are overrated. I see some pluses in certain environments and certain applications, but overall I think a keyboard and mouse rule right now. Maybe the applications of the future will change that.

I am interested in having the tablets being able to accept digital signatures. We'll see how that goes.
