Another reason to buy ultra mobile PC: Tablet PC features in Windows Vista - Vista mobile phones coming March 05, 2007 [mobile PCs (Tablet PC, mini-PC, ...)] | By Edward J. R. Once upon a time, in a time long forgotten, Tablet PC was a special add-on on top of Windows XP Professional and available as "Tablet PC Edition" of that OS. 
Today, in modern times, not only Tablet PC features are pre-installed in contemporary Windows OS - Vista - but also ultra mobile PC computers of very small size, often with built-in cellular connectivity, and not just convertible notebook-looking Tablet PCs - are available on the market and they are equipped with Vista and all that powerful features of full size Tablet PCs! Several amazing Tablet PC features in Vista, including iPhone-like gestures (so called "pen flicks"), panning hand in IE and new touch pointer for multi-touch screens that handle both digitizer pen and finger in one device - are not only a good reason to upgrade your old Tablet PC to Vista but also a very good reason to forget about (yet) underpowered Windows Mobile and go straight to ultra mobile PC device: The Tablet PC ushered in a new era of mobile computing as a single, fully functioning PC that's practical and comfortable while you're on the go and that also works well when you're at your desk. With integrated pen support, touch-screen support, digital-ink input, handwriting recognition technologies, and innovative hardware, ultra-portable Tablet PCs are comfortable and productive virtually anywhere, anytime.

It is only a question of time when "Microsoft powered mobile phones" will be divided into 4 categories: those powered by Windows Mobile, ones powered by Windows CE (with some GUI that sometimes covers it, like in Neonode N2 phone), ones powered by Microsoft Zune platform and, last not least, phones powered by Windows Vista, usually with the fantastic Tablet PC features (active only if a touch screen or a digitizer is recognized)! Since our role as a news site is not only to report about current events but also to predict future, we felt compelled to mention the amazing features of Tablet PC in Vista - a glimpse of the future also in other Microsoft mobility products. The bottom line is: Microsoft mobiles are no longer limited to Windows Mobile phones and encompass much more... so get ready for the future and since we are committed to cover all Microsoft powered mobile phones - stay tuned!
