Tablet PC V2 To Launch In 2004

"Looking at Microsoft"s Windows Platform Roadmap, we can see that the company promised Windows XP Tablet PC Edition "V2" by the end of 2003. But that"s not happening, the company told me recently. Instead, the next Tablet PC OS will launch next year, though I"ve not heard a thing about new features or changes. That may sound like bad news, but in actuality XP Tablet PC is incredibly full-featured and mature, and it"s the hardware concerns mentioned above that have held back the platform, and not the software. So all the new Centrino Tablets coming this year will run the original Tablet PC software, and not a new version."
