<strong>Tablet</strong> Specs<br />

<strong>Tablet</strong>s come in a variety of sizes, but generally, most tablets have at<br />

least 6 or 7 inches of screen size. Traditional tablet computers can be as<br />

large as laptops while newer tablets are much smaller and user a different<br />

type of processor that allows it to have a size similar to PDAs.<br />

An accelerometer is a device that can detect and measure physical<br />

movements of <strong>the</strong> tablet. The tablet has no fixed orientation of use, so <strong>the</strong><br />

screen can adjust direction based on how <strong>the</strong> tablet is held. Movement<br />

and orientation of <strong>the</strong> tablet can also be used to control <strong>the</strong> interface of<br />

applications for <strong>the</strong> tablet.<br />

<strong>Tablet</strong>s can have many different forms and<br />

formats.
