The slate style computer tablets are defined as PC’s without a keyboard. The slate computer tablet is a version widely used in the health care industry because of its lightweight design. It is considerably lighter than the average laptop PC. Slate computer tablets can recognize hand written text. The text can then be translated so that it is understood by the PC. Most slate styles start in price at about one thousand dollars.
Convertible style computer tablets have an attached keyboard incorporated with them. They are heavier than the slate style, and they look more like the popular laptop computers. One difference that the convertible style has over the traditional laptop is the ability of the screen to rotate 180 degrees, while laying flat. This is easier for reading purposes. Convertible style computer tablets are the most popular of the three types simply because people are still leery of using the digital pen. Convertible tablets start in the price range of about seven hundred dollars, making it a bit more affordable than the slate style models.
