Tablet PC for ASP.NET Development

Hello,
I want to replace my old laptop PC with a Tablet PC. I'mwondering if Tablet PC Windows XP has IIS and similar web developmentfeatures activated like in Window XP Pro?
I'm hoping that I can use the Tablet PC to develop my ASP.NET webapplications on the go, just as I currently do on my laptop with XPPro. Does anyone have experience developing on a Tablet PC? If so, any major drawbacks?
I know this isn't the ideal setup. I have a desktop PC that I usefor day-to-day development work...the Tablet PC would be my secondcomputer that'd I develop on when I'm traveling or want to get out ofthe house/office.
Thanks!
Rob
PS. This is for ASP.NET 1.1 development primarily...only occasionally working with ASP.NET 2.0
I've heard of some people using the bigger/more powerful TabletPCs for dev work without any problems. For occasional work that should work very well.

Talking between two different web servers

I have two different servers (different ip addresses). They are running IIS. They both have access databases. The first server contains a website.

What is the simplest way to use my website to connect to the other server? My goal is to send information to the access database on the other sever. How can they communicate with one another?

Thanks

Hi,

You can create a web service on the second server. Or you can create a second web site on the second server and receive form data from the first server.


Thanks.

How can I receive data from the second server by receiving form data from the first server? Would I have to set up connection strings specifying both servers? Both servers are located in different regions and not on the same local network. For it to be possible, their IP addresses would have to be unique right? If you know of any on-line references dealing with this subject let me know.

Also these are simple MS Access databases and not MS SQL databases.
