Asus Tablet with Slide-out Keyboard Due in September?
18.05.27
Reports that an Asus Italy representative assured them the Eee Pad Slider would arrive in Italy in September, and there would be two models: a version with 16GB of storage and one with 32GB. Notebook Italia reports that the 16GB model will cost $400 and that the 32GB version will be $500. This is comparable to the price cuts on the HP TouchPad and the Asus Eee Pad Transformer , making the 10.1-inch tablet an attractive option if and when it arrives in the United States.
Asus has listed, for the first time, the complete specs for the Eee Pad Slider, revealing the tablet will ship with Android 3.1 but be upgradable to Android 3.2. Other specs listed confirm what we already knew of the Slider , including its Nvidia Tegra 2 processor, 1GB of memory, and 1280 by 800 resolution. Now, however, battery life is listed officially as up to 8 hours (up from 6 hours) and a thickness of 0.68 inches—not bad for a tablet with a built-in keyboard, but not the “under half an inch” we were expecting either.
