Nowadays, tablet PCs are gaining immense popularity among people owing to the attractive features offered by them. Tablet PCs are notebook or slate-shaped mobile computers that are equipped with a sensitive screen designed to interact with a complementary pen.
A tablet PC has emerged as a culmination of advances in shrinking notebook hardware and improvements in integrated digitisers as a method of input. A tablet PC's digitiser is an absolute pointing device rather than a relative pointing device, such as a mouse or a touchpad. The digitiser is integrated with the screen and correlates physical touch or digital pen interaction on the screen.
The digitising tablet technology enables you to input data by using a stylus or fingertip (instead of keyboard or mouse). This facilitates direct interaction with the display screen.

You can can enter text in a tablet PC by using:

handwriting recognition

onscreen virtual keyboard

speech recognition

standard keyboard

shorthand like entry methods that enable pen-driven input

A tablet PC is linked to a network through a wireless or wired link. The form factor offers a more mobile way of interacting with a computer.

Usually, tablet PCs run on Windows XP Tablet PC Edition and Windows Vista operating systems.

Tablet PC are useful when notebooks are impractical or do not provide the needed functionality.

Slates constitute a popular category of tablet PCs. Slates do not have a dedicated keyboard. A keyboard may be attached via a wireless or an USB connection.
