{{Section
|header=Characteristics &amp; indications of usage
|text=Since tablets usually don't have a full size keyboard, they're not ideal for inputting large quantities of data; instead they're used to consult and/or modify existing data.

Realizations of this Pattern Variant are Company Owned and Controlled Devices (COCD), but corporate users will take these off premises, and use them from home or other locations. It can be expected that users will also install and run applications for private purposes.

Because the device is mobile, there's a chance of data loss if the device is lost, stolen or damaged. Important data needs to be regularly backed up, or it should primarily reside on centralized ArchiSurance systems.

Besides downright local storage of company data, caching of data may also require security measures such as encryption, to prevent any disclosure of corporate data after loss or theft.
