Following up its sucessful ASUS Transformer Prime tablet that can quickly convert into a ntoebook with a QWERTY keyboard attachment, ASUS announced the Transformer Book at Computex which offers the same versatility but for a Windows 8 slate. Can this be the standard bearer of Windows 8 slates going forward? Below is an overview from ASUS.
The ASUS Transformer Book is the world's first convertible notebook - allowing users to instantly switch between a notebook and a tablet by simply detaching the screen. It is aimed at users who prefer the portability of a multi-touch tablet computer for leisure, but still want access to a more traditional Windows-based notebook for productivity use. Thanks to 3rd generation Intel Core processors and discrete graphics, along with SSD and HDD storage, 4GB DDR3 dual-channel RAM and USB 3.0, the Transformer Book delivers performance that rivals other notebooks on the market. It also features ASUS SonicMaster technology to deliver crystal-clear sound with deep rich bass through its integrated speakers.
