MS will hand out tablets to each attendees today at their CEO Summit.
At Microsoft's CEO conference, the more than 100 attendees will receive beta versions of tablet devices, a Microsoft spokesman said. The Tablet PCs will be used in conjunction with smart cards, identifying each CEO with his or her specific machine, and will provide access to slides and other presentation materials. The executives will be able to take notes on the devices using the pens, and save the information through a Universal Serial Bus "keychain" storage device, the spokesman said. These seem like a step in the right direction.
