Tablet PCs will be available in two basic formats: the "convertible" model with an integrated keyboard and a display that rotates 180 degrees and can be folded down over the keyboard, and the "slate" style with a removable keyboard. The Scribbler is a slate model. The Scribbler came pre-loaded with Microsofts Windows XP Professional Tablet PC Edition. Digital Ink is the tablets killer app, allowing users to input information by writing or drawing with a stylus directly on the screen. Its like jotting notes on a piece of paper.
