I love tablets, it is no secret.
I think the iPad is great and I love how Android developed an OS solely for tablet computing. I was really excited during CES when company after company released news of new tablets hitting the market. One company that announced an aggressive move toward tablets was ASUS. This is good for many reasons.
First off, ASUS has been known to design good hardware and keep prices relatively low. Who doesn’t want good products at low prices? Second, while I loath netbooks, my old ASUS EeePC was not all that horrible. It had a pretty snappy processor and did it’s job well (which was to telnet into Cisco switches).
I was not sure what I could expect from them when it came to releasing a tablet. Would they recycle another concept? Would they brand it as their own? Would it be high quality? Would it be a real iPad competitor?
