 Enhancing Business Mobility with Convertible PCsFor years Pen enabled computing devices have enjoyed great success and acceptance in highly vertical industries like delivery services, auditing and POS. The primary limitations of early pen computing devices, which were the hurdles to early mainstream adoption, were the power limitations of the devices, no stable OS environment for application development, and the lack of a keyboard for traditional input. Now, with the availability of Windows XP Tablet PC edition and Vista, which are both Pen Enabled operating systems, the flexibility afforded by dual function convertible notebooks and a host of 3rd party applications, Pen Computing has expanded into areas like healthcare, insurance, education, retail, and sales force automation. What used to be strictly vertical has now caught on as a preferred alternative to standard notebooks. Is now the right time for you to consider pen computing? Tune in to find out what these amazing mobile devices can do to simplify tasks, expand the utility of a traditional notebook, and increase the ROI of traditional notebook computing.
