Case Western Reserve University's newest technology partnership is bringing the convenience of pen and paper to campus computing.

Case has entered into a four-year agreement with Motion Computing, in which the University and its Strategic Technology Alliance affiliates will collaborate on research, development and testing of Motion products, including the M1300 Tablet PC and accessories.

Tablet PCs run all the same applications and provide the same connectivity to the Internet
as a desktop or laptop computer, but-in a major evolutionary step in computer functionality and usability-also allow a user to write directly on the screen.

Under the agreement, Case faculty, staff, students and affiliates are entitled to a 12 percent discount off of the list price of Motion Computing products.

Electronic ordering through the Case ITS eStores soon will be available. Meanwhile, go to http://www.motioncomputing.com to view Motion Computing products and then e-mail dwheeler@motioncomputing.com to place an order.
