Tablet Dune Runs Windows 7, Available in Belgium (Video)

Aug 25, 2010 Tablet related


There are some tablets out there that escaped the eagle eye of tech blogs, like the Tablet Dune, shown in action in the following video. Spotted in Belgium, this device comes from Le.Net (Le Point Net), it runs Windows 7 and uses a 10.2 inch display. This slate was uncovered by gottabemobile forum member Tuur, who also has some details on the unit.

Here’s a pretty accurate specs list for Tablet Dune (strange name, by the way):

CPU: Intel Atom N450, 1.67GHz
Memory: 2GB DDR2 RAM, 160GB HDD (or 16/32GB SSD)
Connectivity: WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth, optional 3G
Camera: 1.3MP webcam
Display: 10.2 inch resistive multitouch display
Battery life: 2.5 to 4.5 hours

The device is out of stock at the moment, but it should be back in two weeks or so. For the right price, this slate could be a bargain, we think…

EROS 2 Windows 7 Tablet Gets Detailed

Aug 7, 2010 Tablet related

The first-gen Windows 7 EROS tablet was spotted back in January, making quite a splash back then. Now, we learn that the device will have a successor, the EROS 2, running the same OS and sporting a bigger screen – 11.6 inches versus the predecessor’s 10.1 inches screen. Also, the new tablet will support a 1366 x 768 pixel resolution and it’ll weigh 1kg, making it quite a heavy piece of machinery.

EROS 2 hides an Intel Atom N450 CPU under the shell, but there’s also the option of using Atom N450+ION2 or Celeron SU2300, depending on the user’s choice of configuration. 1GB of RAM is available, 16GB of ROM too, 3 USB ports and a HDMI one. The device also gets an impressive 4600mAh battery, supposed to function for 3 hours, even if you’re browsing the Internet intensively.

The price for this slate is $447, for the N450 version, $552 for the Atom N450+ION2 one and $588 for Celeron SU2300. Expect the EROS 2 to debut in about a month.

Windows Phone 7 to Feature Customized Macallan UI on Tablets (Video)

Aug 2, 2010 Tablet OS and UI

If you want an extra reason for becoming interested in a Windows 7 tablet, the Macallan UI shown below and in action at the end of the article might just be it. This neat interface was developed by a third party company, known as UI Centric, specifically for Windows-based slates.

The UI we’re talking about is very clean, finger-friendly and capable of Adobe Flash and Microsoft Silverlight. Also, it includes the famous page flip gesture, used for multitasking control. UI Centric claims that the software will debut in Q3 2010 on a real device, made by “a major manufacturer”. Here it is, in action:

Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer Claims Windows 7 Slates Will be Available in 2010

Jul 15, 2010 Microsoft

Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer recently announced that we’ll see Windows 7 tablets available on the market before the year end. The claim came during the opening keynote at the Worldwide Partner Conference and we’re wondering if Ballmer only referred to the HP device we know of (supposedly cancelled) and a Dell one that’s also very likely.

The CEO also mentioned some names of partners that will manufacture said slates: Asus, Samsung, Dell, Toshiba and Sony. Looking forward for that Sony bit of engineering, meaning that Windows 7 might also hit Sony Ericsson at some point.

“Big iPhone”-like Slate Features Intel Atom CPU, Gets Analyzed

Jun 12, 2010 Tablet related

We can’t blame the following tablet for being an iPad clone, but rather a bigger version of the iPhone. The device features an Intel Atom N450 1.66GHz CPU, 1GB DDR2 memory, a 250GB HDD, a 10.1 inch capacitive touchscreen display, with a 1024 x 600 pixel resolution and GMA 3150 graphics solution.

The tablet also integrates Bluetooth, WiFi, a 3G module, 3 USB ports, a mini display, an SD card reader, an integrated 1.3 MP camera, a Polymer 3300 mAh battery and a 3G SIM slot. This “Big iPhone” weighs 1.09 kg, measures 22mm in thickness and has been available since April 2010.

Apparently, this gadget runs Windows 7 and supports DVD quality videos, but the analysis of the device complains about a small and unfriendly touch button design.

MSI WindPad U100 Official Promotional Images Revealed

Jun 9, 2010 MSI

Computex 2010 might have ended, but the tablets that debuted during the show are here to stay. Among the most important names we have to mention MSI WindPad U100, that recently had its official promotional pics revealed. This is a Windows 7-based device, with an Intel Atom Z530 processor, plus a 10 inch 1024 x 600 pixel screen, a webcam, USB 2.0 port and an HDMI output.

However, this device is not as appealing as the MSI WindPad U110, that features NVIDIA’s Tegra chipset, it’s based on Android and comes with 1080p support. No certain launch dates for the two slates have been announced yet, but we’re guessing that “later this year” is close enough to get us excited.

Pricing should be around $499 for the U100 and $399 for the U110.

Asus Eee Pad Officially Unveiled at Computex 2010; Windows 7 Tablet With Intel CULV CPUs

May 31, 2010 Asus

What better occasion to reveal the very first Asus tablet, than Computex 2010? Asus Eee Pad is now official, with more than one versions detailed by the company. The most interesting one is certainly the 12 inch EP121, packing Intel’s Core 2 Duo CULV processor, Windows 7 and a battery that should provide 10 hours of operating time.

This surely sounds like a netbook without a keyboard, which is maybe the reason why Asus is also preparing a “hybrid” dock/keyboard solution for extra tactile feedback for the user’s typing. The Eee Pad will also feature an integrated webcam and USB port(s).

There’s also a 10 inch model prepared, the EP101TC, with less known specs, but Windows Embedded Compact 7 as the OS of choice. This unit is the one pictured below. What do you say? Just another iPad rival, or a product that stands out from the crowd?
