Real Estate Agents Dream Laptop Tablet Combo

We have used tablets since they first came out to quickly access the MLS, sign contracts and work on the fly.   The HP TZ series was the best of the best.

Then came along Asus Taichi with a revolutionary screen share mode.  Wow.

This feature allows Agents to share their screen while previewing properties with clients anywhere at anytime which out handing a laptop back and forth.  Very convient.

The laptop tablet combo has great speed based on it Intel i7 processor and 4GB or Ram.

The tablet mode is also very well done eliminating the need to spin or flip the screen.

Is the desktop/laptop market dead?

Ok, we have all heard that desktop sales are down and now the news is laptops are dead.

Really?

I don't buy it for one second.   You mean to tell me we are going to be walking around with a small mobile device that meets everyone's needs?   Maybe in 10 years - maybe.

For one power consumption is still a problem that hardware manufactures have not resolved.

The next issue to content with is interface and connectivity.   Have you used an iPad without a keyboard or try writing a long email on an iPhone.  Painful is one word.

We have solved storage to an extent.  Cloud storage is readily available but is it truly secure.  Maybe.

Keep you laptops handy for now and when you get home sync it with your bullet-proof desktop.

The problem with tablets is there is no way of connecting to everything in a stable, secure fashion either for consumers or for enterprise users.    Yes, you can add a keyboard but the Apps that are available just aren't there yet.   They will be but no just yet.

Stay tuned connected people.
