Inside the Asus Transformer AiO

April 16, 2013 by Harpermac

ASUS-Transformer-AiO

We are living in an age where science fiction meets tech reality, and the prevalence of all-in-one tablet-and-PC devices is making this even more true. On April 12 Asus released the Transformer AiO, its take on the all-in-one phenomenon. With this tablet, you can simply pick up your PC monitor and take it with you. Here’s everything you want to know to decide if the Transformer is right for you.

Functionality of the Asus Transformer AiO

The Asus Transformer AiO is more than just a tablet. What makes this tablet unique is the fact that it can function as a typical, inclusive PC. In fact, when it’s connected to the PC Station, you will hardly know that it’s a not a traditional PC. However, if you wish to use it as an Android device, simply detach the screen and go. While much larger, and much heavier, than the iPad, the Transformer offers full Android functionality.

When you detach the screen, it switches automatically from Windows 8 to the Android OS. What if you want to use both? That’s fairly simple, just use the base’s HDMI-port to attach a monitor and you can use both Android and Windows 8 simultaneously on the split screens. This is what sets it apart from similar all-in-one units. [Read more…]

Indian Company Releases Own Tablet Product

July 18, 2011 by Rogue

Steve Jobs said a very scathing remark during the presentation he made introducing the iPad 2. He said that 2011 could probably be the year of the copycats as many companies are attempting to ride on the amazing market niche the iPad practically made on its own – the tablet market. It may sound arrogant of Jobs but he does have a point – every single electronics company out there is making their own tablets and enter an increasingly crowded market that is still being dominated by Apple despite strong opposition from Samsung, HP and the Android operating system.

HP DreamScreen

September 23, 2009 by Ade

HP is introducing a new line of tablet computers. It’s a souped-up netbook, basically, and it looks good.

The new HP DreamScreen is a tablet with a remote control that can used throughout the house to stream content from your home network, removable storage cards, or internal storage.

The DreamScreen will come in two size. One model will have a 10.2 inch display and sell for around $249, while a larger version will have a 13.3 inch display and $299 price tag.

Both models will include WiFi, Ethernet, 2GB of built in storage and a media card reader. They feature software for watching videos and visiting web destinations including Pandora, Snapfish, and Facebook. There’s also a new HP SmartRadio feature that lets you connect to about 15,000 internet radio stations from across the globe. They can be sorted by genre or location.

While the DreamScreen 100 has a 10.2 inch display and the DreamScreen 130 has a 13.3 inch screen, both models have 800 x 480 pixel display resolutions, which seems a bit low to me. Both devices also include Ethernet, 8021.11b/g WiFi, and support for MPEG 1,2, 4, and H.264 video as well as JPG, PNG, and BMP images and MP3, WMA, AAC, and WAV audio. They can handle a number of flash card formats including CF, SDHC, Memory Stick, and xD.
