Articles about convertible tablet

One of the most anticipated tablets of this moment is the Acer 1820PT, not doubt about it, as we wrote quite a few articles on it (here's one for example). A recent leak shed the light on it's future. I can tell you it won't be nice, as there's info that two new models will replace it: the Acer Aspire 1825PT and 1825PTZ, both featuring an Intel ULV CPU, both 11.6 screens and quite large capacity batteries, possibly 9 cell so if the current Timelines with ULV CPUs are good for about 8 hours I can...

Finding a computer for your kids can be a difficult task. If you think of a convertible tablet PC things are even more difficult, but there are products like the Rilakkuma SX specially targeted at your kids. The only problem is that you might want to book a flight to Japan to get one and prepare around 1000$ cash for it.It sounds much (actually it is) but if your kid's happiness is what you're seeking you can't go wrong with the Rilakkuma SX convertible touch tablet. You know it's for kids t...

A loft of you guys have asked  me about the Lenovo S10-3t and the Asus EEE PC T101MT convertible tablet PCs with netbook hardware inside. Those are the best choices right now as the Lenovo already sells the S10-3t while the ASUS has begun shipping the EEE PC  T101MT (reviewed by me here) so availability is expected in days to weeks time.In this post I'll try and put head to head the two convertible tablet PCs and try and make a short comparison review that might help you decide which one o...

Remember my first hands on preview of the ASUS T101MT convertible netbook tablet? ASUS sure does as they were not pleased with my findings so they've send me another sample, this one being just like the one that you'll be able to buy from stores in a few weeks. I won't make a new review, or hands on video, but I'll highlight the differences from the product I've handled a few weeks ago and this final version.The big question you all have in your minds is whether the screen is good. Well, I'm...

We've talked here several times about the Acer Aspire 1820PT convertible tablet, but just now there's more official info about availability and price for one of the most anticipated convertible tablets around. Why is the Acer 1820PT so interesting? Well, mainly because it's a powerful tablet with a very affordable price (think a little above other netbook tablets) but with a Core 2 Duo CPU, up to 8 GB RAM and 320 GB Hard drive.Official pricing will start at 599 EUR in Europe so expect someth...

We saw all kind of Android tablets this year, except convertible tablets, at least till CeBIT, where Mag Digital presented its Skytone Alpha convertible tablet powered by Android 1.6 and an ARM11 CPU. Alpha means the beginning in Greek alphabet, and there's a lot to improve till we hit Omega. This is like the first Asus EEE PC netbook: 7 inch touchscreen (800 x 480 pixels), two hours battery life, WiFi, USB, SD card slot plus two nice features, the TV out port and the 180 degrees swivel mechanis...

Another IT show, another niche comes up. As CeBIT just started I come upon the official release of Intel's new Convertible Classmate PC, a cheap learning computer that people are calling netvertible (I suppose comes from the combination of netbook and convertible). Looking behind marketing names this is a classic convertible netbook tablet, but with a more childish look, exactly what you would buy your kid before going to school. Let's see what the new device brings to the Classmate series and i...

Gigabyte seems to be really into the convertible tablet race as they've displayed the T1000p netbook tablet at CeBIT and the first hands on had hit the web, of course. From initial impressions it seems we have a real deal here: chiclet keyboard (the best Gigabyte has put on a portable so far), nice resistive multitouch screen with good response, solid construction and a big 6 cell battery (56 Wh) which should be good for 7-8 hours of use.Also the interface on top of Windows 7 Starter seems a...

I've just received the final ASUS EEE PC T101MT sample that has got rid of the touch screen problems experienced in the first time. Check out the second review here. If you want to get one, the ASUS EEE PC T101MT just arrived on Amazon for 446$.Today a surprise was waiting for me when I went home: the ASUS Eee PC T101 MT, white version, in a sealed box. No, it isn't mine, but I'm playing with it a few days so I'll be updating this short review with impressions as I go along.For now I hav...
