ASUS Eee Pad Slider Specs & Details Arrive as Launch Looms

Published

on

The Eee Pad Slider was first shown off at CES 2011, 8 months ago, but we haven’t heard much from ASUS about the device until recent weeks.

ASUS has just put the official ASUS Eee Pad Slider product page online. Even though you can’t order the Slider just yet, you can check out the full specs, a collection of product photos and preloaded apps.

We had originally expected the Slider in May, but after a delay we expect to see the device soon. The launch of the Eee Pad Slider webpage is promising news for fans who want to get this hybrid Android honeycomb tablet in their hands.

The big sell of the Slider, which makes it different from the Eee Pad Transformer, is that the Slider has a slide out chiclet style keyboard. This adds some bulk to the device, and lacks the flexibility of an external keyboard dock. If you do want a keyboard that is always with you, the Slider allows you to have a slimmer notebook.

The 10.1″ display has a 1280 x 800 resolution, 10 finger multitouch support and Corning Gorilla Glass. The sliding shell hides a Nvidia Tegra 2 processor 16 and 32GB of Storage and 1GB RAM. The tablet has a 1.2MP fornt facing camera and a 5MP rear camera. For connectivity, you have Bluetooth, and WiFi b/g/n as well as a USB 2.0 port, Mini HDMI, Audio Jack and SD card reader. There’s also a G sensor, light sensor, gyroscope, e-compass and GPS.

The Eee Pad Slider comes with Polaris Office 3.0, unlimited ASUS Webstorage for one year and an estimated 8 hours of battery life, which is measured when playing a 720P clip.

    Looks like Asus
    is getting ready to launch the long-awaited Eee Pad Slider tablet, as
    the company has launched the official product page as seen here. The tablet
    originally made its debut back in January during CES 2011, and was
    expected to launch in May. But now the projected launch date is
    unofficially in September with the arrival of two models: the $400 16
    GB version and the $500 32 GB version.
