Nationwide notebook and accessories retailer, The Notebook Company, has been announced as the sole reseller of the new Acer 102 tablet notebook.
On the 10, 11 and 12 February 2003, Microsoft staged the annual Microsoft Architect`s Forum in Johannesburg. Christopher Riley, CEO of the Notebook Company explained that, during this event, 150 Microsoft partners tested the new Acer 102 tablet notebook "to determine in which ways they can implement this amazing technology into their respective companies".
"Tablet notebooks offer users the unique ability to write text on the LCD panel - good news for those who still haven`t mastered typing - and the handwriting recognition software is mind-blowingly accurate," he said. The Acer tablet notebook`s screen can be swivelled around to 180 degrees and placed flat on the casing to simplify writing.
"It`s perfect for those who attend meetings due to the fact that writing does not create any distractions - such as typing onto a notebook - or big LCD panels which are placed in the upright position."
