In latest news according to this article is how tablet devices have become a major part in today’s company IT strategy. The article is entitled “Tablets now Workplace Standard, says Dell.” It explains how tablets are a part of 90 percent of IT Company’s strategy. I can believe this statement because in every school meeting there is usually someone controlling a slide show or presentation using a tablet device. Using tablets has made many everyday tasks easier to do in a limited amount of time.

“Dell's tablet group vice-president Neil Hand said the results show the way people work is changing. 

"Days spent going to a specific place to conduct business are fewer, while more employees are on the move and require access to company information outside of the workplace,” he said.

Android takes the top spot for supplied tablet operating systems in the UK, with 69% of organizations supplying Android tablets to workers. Other operating systems were more popular overseas, with Microsoft Windows coming first in the US and Apple's iOS leading in Japan (article).” This portion of the article explains the portability of tablets. Wireless networks make it possible to exchange information and data with ease. The use of cameras helps to conduct online meetings without having to be in the same room. And google applications make it possible to exchange documents to one or more employees, colleagues, or any member of a company.  This article also talks about how the use of tablet will steadily increase as years pass. This captured my attention as well as an interesting and factual article to read.
