Tablets may use virtual keyboards and handwriting recognition for text input through the touchscreen.

The idea of ​​tablet computers is not new. Tablet history began in 1968, a computer scientist named Alan Kay noted that with advances in flat-panel display technology, user interface, miniaturization of computer components and some experimental work in WiFi technology. Alan Kay is not one - only because it previously had many names - big names who have contributed to the process of invention and perfected until now. The next tablet history, in 1972, he published a paper on the device and called it a "Dynabook". Sketch of the Dynabook showed a very similar device to the tablet computers that we have today, with some exceptions. On the Dynabook, both screen and keyboard * all * on the same plane. But Kay's vision even further. He estimates that with the right touch screen technology, you can display the virtual keyboard, the configuration on the screen itself.

Kay leading at that time. History proves that the tablet takes almost four decades before the tablet is similar to what he imagined taking public heart. But that does not mean there is no market for tablet computers in the fourth decade and the Dynabook concept in addition to the famous Apple iPad. Tablet first appeared on the market is GRiDPad.
