You might ask - what is the Tablet PC? The Tablet PC is the newest generation of mobile computers. It provides many of the same features of a laptop computer with additional user-friendly features such as a flip-top screen that allows handwritten hand·write

To write by hand.

 entries and speech recognition. These enhancements increase both the flexibility and the usage of computers; blending the flexibility of a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) A handheld computer for managing contacts, appointments and tasks. It typically includes a name and address database, calendar, to-do list and note taker, which are the functions in a personal information manager (see PIM).  with the power of a laptop computer.

With over 300,000 Tablet PCs in the marketplace, the Tablet PC market is still a small fraction of the PDA industry. Yet with the market projecting 150% growth by the end of 2005, clearly there is a growing market for Tablet PC software.

"The Tablet PC market is poised for exponential growth Extremely fast growth. On a chart, the line curves up rather than being straight. Contrast with linear. , and we are excited to be the first major publisher in the marketplace to offer Bible software for Tablet PC users," says Michael S. Hyatt, President and Chief Operational Officer of Thomas Nelson, Inc. "Our software will allow users to interact with the Bible in much the same way that they interact with their leather bound version at home - taking notes in the margins, underlying key words and passages - while at the same time offering a comprehensive interactive experience with quick referencing, indexing and search capabilities."

Working in conjunction with Zoe Technologies, Nelson Bibles is pioneering the market by producing a New King James Version of the Bible for the Tablet PC available for download on TabletBible.com. In addition to being promoted on TabletBible.com, the NKJV Tablet PC Bible will be cross-promoted on tabletpcpost.com and tabletpcbuzz.com, the premier user site for Tablet PC users and will also be promoted through grassroots efforts on the internet.
