The Tablet Netbook - A Gadgeteer's Dream Come True

Once upon a time, the PC was king, then its crown (and reign) was stolen by the laptop; in its turn, the laptop was defeated by the notebook, then the new kid on the block was the netbook, but now, there's a new guy in town: the tablet netbook.

Ladies and gents, welcome the technology world's latest offspring: every gadgeteer's dream come true, the perfect combination of mobility, power, storing capacity, sleekness and flexibility.

In order to have a clear view on the subject at hand, we should first do a recap of this marvel's forerunners. In the 1970's, Alan Kay envisioned a "personal, portable information manipulator" that he called the "Dynabook". Laptops' screens are at least 11 inches wide, thus permitting for full-size keyboards to be added.

As these products were pretty heavy to carry around, the netbook was born a few years later: a slimmer and lighter laptop, also less expensive, the only drawbacks being on the CPU side. As such, the netbook soon took center stage, a combination of both its predecessors but with added portability (being smaller and lighter) and power (due to the advancements in the field: smaller and more potent chips).

But not even the netbook would do for the busy and demanding businessmen and road warriors; thus, the tablet netbook was invented, the perfect combination of all the plusses offered by the aforementioned products.

Netbook tablets deliver more mobility, being way more portable (as they are much lighter), more computing power (chip makers having made miracles in the meantime and conceived even tinier products), access to a whole suite of office applications and multimedia features, thus being a match made in heaven for those that want to be in touch with their employees (or employers) and their loved ones all the time.

What sets netbook tablet PCs apart from the other portable PCs is their swiveling screen, which can even lie flat, being extremely useful during conferences (showing one's partners charts, graphs and so on) or for teambuilding sessions.

Also noteworthy is the fact that one can employ both the full-size keyboard (for those who need to touch or even smash buttons from time to time to feel comfortable while typing) and the capacitive touchscreen, which is usually around 11 inches wide, enough for performing al the daily chores on any PC. To the small form factor, one should add the longer lasting battery and the lower price, making netbook tablet PCs a very valuable acquisition.

And now, let us take a look at the best tablet netbooks out there: T101MT, Viliv X10 and Acer 1825 PT. They are all garnered with a swiveling touch capacitive screen that measures around 11 inches diagonally, a storage of around 160 GB, a complete suite of office apps, a long lasting and reliable battery, and the Windows 7 operating system or lower but upgradeable.
