The Most Important Invention
by Patty Mejia

In my opinion the most important invention in the last 200 years is the tablet, it´s obvious that , small computers have changed the way people use to live.

First of all what is the tablet?, well   a tablet is a mobile computer with display, circuitry and battery in a single unit. You only need your hands to use it because it has a touch screen and a virtual keyboard.

 It has been design by many big companies, for example: Apple, Samsung, Palaroid, Microsoft , etc.

About the features of this product, some of them are:

·        Bluetooth for connecting  and communicating with local devices.

·        Keyboard and USB port(s).

·        GPS satellite location.

·        Wireless internet connectivity usually with Wi-Fi standard.

·         Reader for digital books, periodicals and other content

·        Downloadable apps such as games, education and utilities.

·        E-mail and social media

·        Mobile phone functions (messaging, speakerphone, address book)

·        Video-teleconferencing

·        Speech recognition

Talking about the advantages ,I think  it´s really easy to use in many places  where is difficult to carry a  keyboard and  a mouse, also  the battery life is longer than  a laptop´s battery  , not only that you can be in touch with people wherever you are  and surf the web to get information, entertainment , for working, homework, etc.

The downside of this product could be:

A tablet does not offer space for relaxation wrist, besides, the user will have to move your arm constantly while writing. Not only that the screen of a tablet is more manipulated than a laptop´s one so it has a big risk of damage and a misuse, in addition the price of a tablet is kind of expensive, that´s the reason why The sale of personal tablets has grown little since 2001 .

Personally speaking, I am sure these small computers are really useful and can make life easier for people who work and study. I really want to get one .
