vnunet: Tablet PCs are a bitter pill?
I thought I'd post my response to this thread and article here:
Convertible Tablet PCs are what will make the Tablet PC concept successful. Not the other way around. If the only tablet PCs were slates, it would have died a long time ago.
After using a convertible, people will say "hey, you know what I don't really need a keyboard. Those slates look great." Or they may say "I love this convertible."
The thing is, choice (and better marketing) is what will make tablets successful, not a lack of choice.
