Tablet PCs
A Tablet PC is a cross between a notebook PC and a
personal digital assistant (PDA). It's a flat-panel portable PC in the form of a slate. A user inputs data either by tapping the screen with a stylus, or using the stylus to write directly on to the screen. The tablet PC can wirelessly connect to the Internet and other PCs and is intended to provide the power of a notebook in hand-held form.
As of 2011], the usual tablet computer display size is 10" (for iPad) or 7" (for many Android tablets). Many tablet PC makers have standardized on a 12" widescreen format, with a resolution of 1280x800 pixels. The Fujitsu T5010 has a larger 13.3" display, but still runs at the 1280x800 pixel resolution. The Acer TravelMate C300 has a 14.1" screen at 1024x768
The tablet PC comes pre-loaded with an operating system and can run compatible applications, including applications designed for the tablet PC. The tablet PC can also utilize a docking station for use with a monitor, keyboard, mouse, LAN or WAN, and other peripheral devices.
