Just for the fun of it, what else can I show people? "Carmen Gauvin-O'Donnell" <seegod1[ at ]cogeco.ca> 3/6/2007 11:24:27 AM Hi everyone! I keep a list of "things to show off" about my tablet PC, so when people ask they can really see the difference between it and a regular laptop. A lot of it is software-based, but my list includes: Inserting extra lines into a ON page Snipping tool 2.0 Sending a page to ON for highlighting and marking up Searching within handwritten notes in ON Ink Art 1.3 Converting handwriting to text the lasso in ON the time-saving drawing toolbar in ON Is there anything else someone else out there thinks we should all include... I mean stuff that makes our friends go "oh wow, that's cool!" Looking forward to your input! C.

"Chris H" <VistaMobilePC[ at ]hotmail.com> 3/6/2007 2:57:17 PM If you're running Windows XP SP2 and the Tablet PC Edition 2005, take a look at the Experience Pack: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/tabletpc/experiencepack/overview.mspx It includes Ink Desktop, the Snipping Tool and Ink Crossword, among other things. There's also the Enhancement Pack (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/tabletpc/enhancementpack/default.mspx) which has the very addictive Hexic game. 8-) -- Chris H.

Re: Just for the fun of it, what else can I show people? John Guin 3/11/2007 10:10:08 PM This may sound odd, but a friend of mine and I do this: Create a shared notebook on a server we can both access. There is a free sharepoint server (limited to 5 users and 5MB total, not much) at http://www.frontpages-web-hosting.net/ if you need a sharepoint site. I created a "poetry" section in a blank notepad Shared it with my friend Now, find a poem you like Paste it into a new page and resize the outline to be just under half the width of your screen Now you can circle important lines of the poem and write your comments to the right My friend does the same thing, and we can debate back and forth Until you actually see how smooth it works, it doesn't sound like much.

Re: Just for the fun of it, what else can I show people? "Chris H" <VistaMobilePC[ at ]hotmail.com> 3/13/2007 10:04:42 PM We're sort of in luck, Jellybean (or is it JellyBean?) with two new releases which include Vista updates to previous packs. Check out http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=1B5BA4F3-C8E1-405F-BE61-8A48BA11CA41&displaylang=en for the Experience Pack for Windows Vista, which includes new Media Transfer, Ink Crossword, Equation Writer and Ink Flash Cards programs. Also check out the new Ink Desktop for Windows Vista: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e1a51f4a-9e58-45f7-985b-3c37b8eedb71&DisplayLang=en The Ink Desktop allows you to have a "portable dry-erase board on your screen all the time" so the info goes. 8-) -- Chris H.
