Can I install ArcPad on my desktop or does it need to go on the Tablet PC we use?

Does ArcPad need to be installed on the same computer that data is transfered to/from the portable GPS unit? I'd like to have ArcPad installed on my computer, however the data is typically transfered to our network on a tablet PC, which would do me little good. My impressions based on what I've read is that I need to Check In/Check Out using one computer, but that the files can be transfered to/from the GPS unit from any computer. Thanks

Once the check-out files are created you can transfer the files to your tablet with any PC which does not require the ArcPad application.
