2. Mobile Worker Issues Mobile computing is a requirement Usage is limited by clamshell designs –Displays are viewed as barriers –Typing in meetings is distracting –Not optimized for classrooms –Not designed for walking and computing Too many devices – notebook PC, handheld, spiral notebook, planner, and sticky notes Online everywhere, always

3. Previous Barriers for Pen Computing Devices were too large –Components were big, took too much power, and were ‘thermally challenged’ –Little emphasis on human-focused design Software was poor –Windows was not designed for keyboard-less systems –Virtual keyboards and digitizer interfaces were not optimal –Required specialized application development Minimal connectivity options –Wireless wide-area network was not reality

4. Why Now? Mobile worker requirements have not changed Hardware technology is mobile-optimized –Wide availability of commoditized thin components (12.5mm) –Improved battery densities and chemistries –Experienced in thin notebook designs Wireless technology is real –802.11 is available –Inexpensive Windows XP Tablet PC Edition –Compatible with current applications –Pen enabled

5. Mobility (form factor + wireless connectivity) Computing Power Desktop Notebook Mobile Phone PDA Prior pen-based computing products Optimized mobile experience through hardware, wireless and software integration The Tablet PC Windows XP Full size display Notebook specs Integrated wireless Thin and light Pen/voice/buttons

6. The Tablet PC The Tablet PC is an ultraportable platform with pen support running XP Tablet Pure tablet with attachable keyboard Convertible with integrated keyboard 2 form factors

7. Benefits of the Tablet PC Anywhere usage –Grab and go –No lap required – carries like a spiral notebook –Access to information, both local and remote Quick, natural capture of thoughts –Write or draw –Annotation on documents –Handwritten forms Runs all Microsoft Windows XP applications Rich multimedia presentations

10. Healthcare Case Study Need to gather patient symptoms Patient answers online diagnostic form Need quick access to patient records Medical records are available through EMR System Doctors need access to up-to-date data quickly Doctor gets wireless access to server-based reference material Unpleasant patient therapy Engaging video and patient training ProblemSolution

11. Field Sales Case Study Customers with little time and short attention spans Ability to annotate on presentations while going through multimedia slide show Need to gather customer info in a digital format Use online forms to capture order at point of sale Must have customer signatures Signature utility allows for capture and protection of customer signatures Want to use all applications on one system Media rich presentations, signature capture, forms and standard productivity applications run on one device ProblemSolution

12. Higher Education Case Study Need a way to easily capture and index notes Software that supports note taking, ink searching, and drawing Too much to carry and too many devices All-in-one device supports E-Books, note taking, and productivity applications Difficult to manipulate info once captured (math formulas, data) Standard data manipulation tools (Cut, Paste, Search) as well as new utilities (Snippet) Difficult to collaborate in workgroups Built-in wireless networking and collaboration tools improve workgroup experience ProblemSolution

13. Tablet PC Impact Changing the way people work with their computers –You don’t think of it as a PC You truly want to take it everywhere Becomes your window to the world –It opens the door for broader use – back to the way you were taught to do things – write, draw, talk –True integration into your everyday life
