The PaceBook is the first Tablet Notebook computer. As the name suggests it is a notebook computer (the worlds first Portrait Notebook Computer) that can also be used as a tablet computer.
It features dictation and handwriting recognition as a tablet so that you can do most of the work while being really mobile. When a desk is available you can start using it as a notebook computer or even separate the monitor part from the keyboard as a LCD PC.
The PaceBook Tablet Notebook is truly the new generation in mobile computing. It is a perfect device for the road warrior sales professional, for doing presentations, for doing conferencing and for a large number of professional applications.
