| Tablet PC: Multifunction devices draw back-to-school crowd The consumer electronics gizmo that offers many functions in a small package is what's compelling back-to-school shoppers to open their wallets. Tablet personal computers on which users can type or handwrite their notes, next-generation handhelds that double as video players and advanced camera phones are among the hottest sellers, analysts say. One of the highlights is Averatec's C3500 convertible notebook, whose display swivels back on itself and can be used to take notes longhand. While such a product isn't new, the Averatec PC is a hit because of its comparatively low price, analysts said. It starts at $1,349.99 before a $50 mail-in rebate, according to the company's Web site. "I've been told consistently that that has been one of the hottest products," said analyst Tim Bajarin of Creative Strategies. The C3500 is also a full-fledged computer that uses Microsoft's Windows XP Tablet PC operating system software and a low-voltage Athlon processor from Advanced Micro Devices. It has high-speed wireless Internet access, a DVD drive and a 12.1-inch screen. Multifunction devices draw back-to-school crowd
