ASUS Vivo Tab Hands-On. Thoughts about the Atom-based Options


I really liked the look of the HP Env X2 I tested at IDF 2012.

ASUS Vivo Tab. 11.6” is not quite the Ultraslate

Information on the ASUS Vivo Tab is coming in from all angles at the moment as it’s just been announced at a press conference. There will be a “RT’ ARM-based version too and there’s talk of a pen-capable display.

We’ll try and bring you more on the ASUS Transformer Book soon. It’s a similar convertible with a 13.3”or even 14” screen that runs on an Ultrabook-like platform of Intel Core CPU.
