The recent launch of the Apple iPad ushered in a unique new type of computer: a “tablet”, designed to fill the gap between a smart phone (like a Blackberry or an iPhone) and a more powerful laptop.

Many business people are asking what these new tablet computers mean to their business, and their personal computing needs.

Tablets, and their target audience:

Tablets are not built to be business machines – the processor-intensive needs and extensive storage space required for most businesses are simply not provided in either the iPad, or upcoming slate computers like the HP Slate.

Where these tablets do excel is for personal use: if you have a computer at work, but only do light email, web surfing, eBook reading, watching videos or listening to music at home, a slate computer could be a perfect match for you.

Benefits of the iPad:

The iPad is optimized for web surfing, multimedia and email.  It is portable, with a very bright and vibrant 9.7-inch display.  When needed, the iPad has an onscreen keyboard, which early reviews report works quite well for typing and data entry needs.

The iPad also offers benefits for the professional in their time off.  For instance, both the Wall Street Journal and USA Today offer iPad-specific versions of their newspaper, so you can read them with your morning coffee without the ink stains!

The iPad is also fairly powerful, with a 1 GHz A4 processor.  It’s not likely to beat your existing laptop or desktop in terms of speed, but its processor is weighty enough that it can handle the specific needs of the iPad well.

What’s on the horizon for slate computers:

Apple has targeted a very specific audience with their product, and many more companies are now working to come up with competitive computers.  One of the most prominent on the horizon is the HP Slate.

The HP Slate will run on Windows 7, so if you’re more comfortable with Windows than you are with Mac operating systems, it may be worth waiting for its release (later this year).

The HP Slate will be similar in size to the iPad, but will boast a faster processor, and a few new features that the iPad does not currently offer, including a built-in camera, an SD card slot, and a USB port.
