Greetings ....

Glanced through this .pdf I downloaded from Pen Computing's site:

http://www.pencomputing.com/pdf/TabletPC_Magazine001.pdf

Somewhat interesting. There's even a time line of tablet PC
development -- but no mention of Apple or Newtons (though one of the
Tablet PC managers apparently bought a Mac a few years ago).

That said, the Mira technology sounds pretty nice. This is a wireless
method to connect your tablet PC to a monitor.

Looking at the pictures of the tablet PC, it seems to be about the
size of a laptop -- and if it's that big, I want a keyboard!

I think the technological ideal would be something about the size of a
2100 that can use Mira technology to connect to both a keyboard and a
larger display -- which, of course, can be used with a stylus.

But I could be wrong ....
