The UMPCs are finally making their way into the mainstream press. For example,
the New Jersey Journal writes about the TabletKiosk.
With a UMPC, you can do anything you can on a regular computer, but you hold the computer like you would a pad of paper. Select items on the screen either with the included stylus or with buttons to the left and right of the screen that mimic the actions of a mouse. Some UMPCs slide up to reveal keypads, but this one doesn't; to type, you either write on the screen or tap on a virtual keyboard.
