Does anyone have any recommendations for good tablet specific software either for work use or personal use?

You should get the Microsoft Tablet PC Experience Pack, but seeing you're running Windows Vista already many of the tools are already included.

Check Art Rage, developed here in Wellington!

I installed Art Rage - looks like a very well made peice of software. Its a big call to design your own UI from the ground up (even the dialog boxes and close/minimise do not use Windows style), but they have done it well.

Im no artist, but this could be good for killing time in meetings (just kidding...)

What I really would like, is for my tablet to mute automatically if my Outlook calendar shows that I am in a meeting at that time...

Not sure about that automatic profile on Windows XP/Vista but I do know a similar program/applet is available for Windows Mobile devices, it automatically switches profile depending on your appointment status.

Another worthwhile software is TEO (Tablet Enhancement for Outlook)

And if you haven't discovered, you can personalised your Vista's TIP, and use pen-flick for page-up/down, back/forward, and even copy, paste, undo, and delete just by using stylus on screen.
