Competitors
ActiveWords InkPad currently has one direct competitor in the Tablet PC market, that being Pen Commander. This product, however, does not operate from the keyboard.
Product Description
ActiveWords InkPad Version 1.5 allows users to control their Tablet PC by writing words with the stylus, extending ActiveWords functionality already available from the keyboard. For example, use the stylus to write “weather” and visit a weather Web site or write “excel” to open Microsoft Excel. Word/action relationships operate identically using either keyboard or stylus. ActiveWords InkPad validates the power of ActiveWords across input modalities and computing platforms, from desktop to notebook, to Tablet PC, and eventually to handhelds and cell phones.
Market Opportunity
ActiveWord Systems, Inc. projects the retail market for ActiveWords at 10% of total computer users. Retail customers are predominantly those who rely on their computers for work and who value their time.
DEMO Says
"ActiveWords has been an essential part of my desktop since the product was introduced at DEMO 2003. On the desktop, ActiveWords is a convenience I don't want to be without. In the tablet PC environment, however, ActiveWords InkPad is transformative, bringing efficiency and a new level of usability to the tablet user interface. No tablet PC device should ship without this software."
