I work on a desktop sales app that is run off a tablet and was wondering if this and other "traditional" desktop tablet applications could be viable as a offline web application. The main difference with tablet applications being the inking support. I think a web app can get close with browser gestures.

I don't see the distinction between a tablet and a laptop. The decision to build an off line web application should be no different regardless of the medium.

  • I think he/she is just asking whether offline web apps are a viable alternative to winforms app, not anything about tablets vs. laptops. – MusiGenesis Oct 31 '08 at 07:00
