Dan Bricklin on the TabletPC

Dan Bricklin (of VisiCalc fame) just bought a TablePC and shares his thoughts on it. Here's Acer's version, and here's Toshiba's (which Dan actually bought).

Looking at these really makes me wish Apple would release a TabletMac. With their Newton expertise (hire them back, guys!) and Mac OS X's inkwell features, I think they could turn out a very powerful device.
