These LifeTouch tablets are intended for business uses such
as mobile work, presentations, industrial applications in man-
ufacturing plants and also provide services to corporations as
dedicated terminals. The LifeTouch tablets are different from

tions necessary for commercial applications in a business
environment. They also support group automated installation,
as well as respond to customization requirements, which are
different for each business.
The LifeTouch tablet series product lineup includes three
products that can be selected according to the usage style. The
first one is the "LifeTouch L" tablet that features a 10.1-inch

perior operability. The second one is the "LifeTouch B" tab-
let with a 7-inch LCD that can be held in one hand and features
both superior visible and portable size. It is waterproof and
dustproof, making it suitable for use outside offices or in man-
ufacturing plants. The third one is the "LifeTouch W" book-
LifeTouch, tablet, security, customization, thin and lightweight
