Business: The Cisco Cius Tablet
For the active and industrious C.E.O of a large corporation, the groundbreaking Cius Tablet, designed with the business user in mind, is undoubtedly a new technology that will facilitate the every-day workings of a multifaceted business. It is a flat, small-sized, portable tablet with abilities ranging from teleconferencing to Micro-USB support. Guaranteed for commercial availability in early 2011, this new innovation will be sure to enhance the everyday work of a C.E.O by retrieving from past technologies and making them better, but will also happen to obsolesce existing technologies and, when overused, might even reverse particular positive factors to the difficult job of a C.EO of a huge company….
1. Enhances
As a “purpose-built, mobile collaboration tablet designed specifically for business” it certainly enhances the Business field with its innovative design and various impressive features. The 7-inch, flat, operating system only weighs 1.15 pounds, making it conveniently mobile, therefore enhancing a traveling C.E.O’s transportation experience considerably. The tablet’s modified version of the new Google Android operation system will also play its part in enhancing a business user’s experience, particularly as Android is becoming increasingly more popular among the business world with its business-inspired “apps” that do everything from calculating sales figures to scanning bar codes. The device also comes with 3G capability, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and Micro-USB support, which are all well-known business technologies that will also be sure to enhance a C.E.O’s experience with communication and accessibility. The fact that the device can go for a total of eight hours at “normal usage” is another feature that will surely enhance a C.E.O’s experience doing his or her job, seeing as this will allow them to take full advantage of time with the product, which is quite necessary as a busy owner of a business. However, arguably the most useful, innovative and impressive part of the Cius Tablet for business is the business-inspired programs that it will run, which will include significantly practical telecommunication programs. These telecommunication programs allow for the inclusion of two cameras, which will lead to the valuable ability of face-to-face teleconferencing. This feature will undeniably enhance the Business field, as business users will have the ability to speak face-to-face with clients, co-workers, etc. without the grating need to travel anywhere whatsoever, giving them what most business people wish for most…more time. In conclusion, the Cius Tablet will enhance the business career because it will allow for faster, easier and more practical communication through its various pieces of software, the ability for easier transportation and longer usage and the groundbreaking ability for fast and efficient face-to-face teleconferencing.
2. Retrieves
The Cius Tablet retrieves from such past technologies as telephones; videotaping and programs like Skype and puts them into a more efficient, business-user friendly format with its teleconferencing software. It takes the communication ability of a telephone, the video aspect of videotaping and the idea of Skype to create something designed for having an easy, efficient meeting with people far away from you, face-to-face without the need of traveling. The way this new technology retrieves from these past technologies considerably changes the way the business world will work, as it will have all of these past abilities in one source, which will make jobs easier for business people everywhere.
3. Obsolesces
The Cius Tablet will obsolesce technologies such as Netbooks (small PC laptop computers), eReaders, cameras, or even, for business people, iPads. Because of the tablet’s many features, including a built in camera, many applications contributing to making business calculations and creating business documents, email, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, etc. many technologies such as cameras and Netbooks will not be needed any longer. The tablet’s ability to download books will mean that eReaders are also no longer necessary, and its ability to connect to the Internet, play music and download applications will also obsolete any need for an iPad. The Cius Tablet will put all of these technologies into one convenient source and make it so that they are no longer needed in the business world. This will be very positive for busy C.E.Os running huge companies, as everything will be more accessible for them and they will not need to have masses of different technologies helping them do their job.
4. Reverses
When used to its outer limit, the Cius Tablet will undoubtedly have a negative aspect to it. This aspect is the fact that, because of the teleconferencing ability, clients, co-workers, etc. will no longer travel to a certain place and properly meet face-to-face, as they would have done without the Cius Tablet. This is a considerably negative aspect because it means that business people will essentially no longer travel to places outside of their own work environment, which means that they will not observe the atmosphere of other international work environments and will not experience other places as they used to without this technology. Also, business people who overuse this technology will soon lose the ability to properly communicate and collaborate with another person without the need of technology, which is a problem in the highly collaborative world of business.
