The most powerful productivity tablet EEE Slate EP121 was taking pre-orders for a long time on Amazon. Now, Asus tablet is available for shipping at $1,099. (Buy on Amazon now)
There are two models: 32GB and 64GB. They are similar in other specs and the price difference is minor.
There are many advantages and only one disadvantage of this tablet we could find. Here are some of them.
Pros:
The tablet is powered by a full OS, Windows 7 Home premium 64 bit. So, you will not have to deal with the app deficiencies of Android market for rival Xoom tablet or will not be slave to Apple iTunes on iPad. Everything which works on your regular Windows laptop, will work here too.
12.1 large capacitive multi-touch pressure sensitive 1280×800 screen.
4GB of DDR3 Ram. It gives even more running space to applications than a laptop.
Fast Intel Core i5 processor
Intel HD Graphics, Two USB slots, 2-in-1 card reader (SD , MMC)
It has handwriting recognition and instant conversion to text.
You get two-points digitizer pen, a folio case and bluetooth keyboard free!
Lightweight tablet.
Cons:
We could not find anything negative (or let’s say neutral) except the battery life. It is up to 4hrs. Actually, considering the processor power and other specs for a full OS, it is not too bad, but it could be better if Asus sacrificed on weight and add some more bulk.
