| TWRoO said: Let's just clarify here... the word tablet is only in reference to the general size and shape and how you hold it, as well as there being a capability of writing on it in some way. The UPad matches all those so it IS a tablet device. What it isn't... is a tablet computer. As it doesn't perform the same kind of functions as a computer. Multi-touch still isn't a qualifier for something to be a tablet computer, there have certainly been enough tablet computers with single-touch screens before. |
You are rating it too literally. It is just like PC. PC stands for personal computer. The computer you own is your personal computer. Not all computers are PCs. Its a term for a type of computer that took a literal approach. Internet Explorer is a program to explore the internet. Not all browsers are internet explorers.
Tablet as it applies to electronics are generally handheld computers. The tablet name is taken from its functionality like a paper tablet. It is the same with a Notebook.
The Upad is not a computer. It has no functionality. Its just a dumb(p?) terminal that receives a video feed and allows you to interact with it through a touch screen and gyroscope. It is a pure gaming extension.
