Story: Tablet PC shipments fizzle out

They can improve the tablets as much as they want, but the underlying problem is that this market does not exist. Gadjeteers may find them interesting, but these tablets cannot compete with PDAs for the PDA market, which itself is not growing. And they compare poorly with real laptops for the laptop market (less bang for more bucks?). The tablets have not succeed in creating a new market, either. Until the market issue is resolved, the product can be 5 five star-wonderful, but they wont sell.
