CES 2011: Motion Computing shows off its Windows 7 tablet

Synopsis

Motion Computing presents its Windows 7 tablet, designed for business-to-business applications, particularly in point of service computing. Unlike Apple, which has taken market share in consumer tablets, Motion focuses on a niche market that requires robust access to corporate information in the field. The tablet features a stylus barn for input, catering to professionals who inspect, maintain, and repair equipment. The demonstration highlights the tablet's HD screen and its ability to run Windows 7 smoothly, allowing users to scroll and interact with websites effectively. Motion Computing emphasizes that their device is not intended for photo manipulation but rather for efficient information entry and retrieval, showcasing software like Bluebeam for annotating PDFs during building inspections.
