Where could I find projected adoption rates for the Tablet OS? I'm anxious to start developing tablet applications but not sure there is enough of a market yet. Any thoughts?

Maslow,

Software creates the market. Fire up that compiler. :)

Here's the latest I've heard:

"By the end of 2004, demand should start to take off, predicts Meta Group.
As the price difference shrinks, tablets "will suddenly become a lot more
compelling," says Meta analyst Steve Kleynhans. He's predicting that 25% of
portable PCs sold in 2006 will be tablets. The tablet may have gotten off to
a slow start, he says, but it's too early to write off Bill Gates's pet
project." - http://www.businessweek.com/magazine...8/b3871066.htm
