Tablet PC Will Defeat Netbook in 2012

Nowadays, netbook is the king. In the last four years, netbook has become a very important thing for most people, after their cell phone of course. But it seems the time is almost up for netbook. Here it comes the tablet PC. The launches of iPad from Apple is believed as the trigger of this new trend. Just like iPod, this time Apple is so successful in bringing other vendors to produce similar gadgets to compete with iPad. More products means competition between the vendors. And we will have more choices, either to make a review, or use it until the next gadget is coming.
Take a look at this Asus Eee Pad EP101TC. It is ready to challenge iPad.

Forrester Research predicts that the popularity of tablet PC will go far beyond the netbook in just two years from now. The result of its research shows that there will be more tablet PC sold than netbook in 2012.

Rotman Epps – the main writer of the research – said that the trend is caused by consumers’ tendency to buy a more sleek and light but strong gadget. Beside that, there is also a prediction that desktop PC will be replaced by this new tablet PC.
Tablet PC itself is not a new gadget. Some vendors have already made some models since years ago. But the Apple’s iPad breaks the market with its intuitive user’s interface.
