Fascinating summary article of the sales growth and strategy for selling TPC hardware and software.

Manufacturers have also been cautious with Tablet PCs, favouring convertables over slates and keeping models down to two or three at the most. Hewlett-Packard, for example, has only one, the recently upgraded TC-1100 with Pentium M or Celeron processors. It won't be replaced until the end of the year, says Daniel Reio, product manger for notebook and Tablet PCs at HP Canada. Sales of the earlier TC-1000 were "modest," he says.

Convertibles are the better choice. They have both typing and writting, I don't even know why they even bother with slates. The new edition of Tablet PC is a good idea, but I'm kinda thinking it's not gonna be THAT good, seeing as it is a free upgrade. I wonder if they'll be a Windows 2005 (longhorn) Tablet edition. Now that's an OS upgrade I really look forward to. They're really implying big changes. Oh well.
