. . . Many Tablet PC makers and Tablet PC software vendors have their first big showcase at Comdex. They only recently unveiled their wares, after Microsoft released its Windows XP Tablet Edition earlier in November. Now, the Tablet PC proponents are gearing up to convince buyers they need the new device. Hewlett-Packard, Fujitsu, and Toshiba are among those displaying recently announced products.

"It will be interesting to see the formal coming-out of the Tablets," says Roger Kay, IDC's director of client computing. "Several non-name-brand vendors are coming out of the woodwork."

One such firm is Gerak Mobile Technology, which is launching at Comdex what it calls the world's smallest Tablet PC. Software firm FrogPad is hopping onto the Tablet PC pad, with peripherals like a one-handed keyboard. Corel is showing Corel Grafigo, a Tablet PC program for sketching, annotating, and creating graphics.
