Tablet PC Marketing

Marketing is not Sales, Advertising or PR, it's about creating new products that will sell.

Three major computer manufactures have produced jumbo sized Tablet PC weighing over six pounds and positioned as desktop replacements. There is not a Tablet PC in this world that will challenge my 64bit desktop, its SATA Hard Drive spines faster and the video cards chip and RAM is as powerful as a Tablet PC.

Today most of us have home networks with several computers, even a server, a Media Center connected to the TV,  XBOX, audio system and Wi-Fi extending into the backyard.

I need a Tablet PC that will spin on my finger, light enough so I can take it anywhere. I'm not going to write a report or novel on my Tablet PC, I just want to be connected to my network, check-out my feeds, access email, listen to some tunes, read news, watch sports and make a few VoIP calls,

I don't need a desktop replacement, I'll never trust my data to a single Hard Drive, Hard drives fail so it's a best practice to back-up your files and thats what I do on my home network. Twelve year olds swap files everyday, so why can't Tablet PC owners sync and swap daily?

I want a adjunct to my system, I log-on to networks everywhere I go and I'm tired of lugging around a laptop, so your NOT going to sell me a convertible.

Yesterday I wrote about my experience with Streets and Trips and my desire for a sleek Slate Tablet PC as my Auto computer, soon we'll wonder how we ever lived without one..
