Good Windows 7 Tablet
I think the EP121 is the best windows tablet to date. It's well designed and performs pretty well. I plan to use these devices at work during client meetings and presentations. What I liked: - It's Windows 7 so we will be able to use it in a corp environment. Clients want us to use iPads but compatibility, security, and flash support just isn't there yet. - It already comes with the keyboard and stand. Please factor that in with the price. - Has bluetooth and many of the ports I expect to use. - The screen is a nice size so you can demo applications or slide desks on it to a small group. - The unit isn't heavy so you can hand it around to people. What I don't like: - Windows 7 touch interface isn't as good as other touch interfaces. Hopefully this will improve over time - The cost of the ep121 will probably make it a non-mainstream device. - If they sold this without the keyboard, I could use one I already have and save money - Like the other reviewer said, a finger print reader would rock. Who should buy it: - Those that want a tablet experience AND the ability to run windows 7 applications. - Those that want to use a tablet in a corporate environment, as this tablet should meet security requirements. Who shouldn't buy it: People that want to mostly surf the web, consume media files, play games, etc., should consider cheaper options available (ipads, android tablets, etc.). Eee Slate vs iPad: I wouldn't say that these devices compete with each other. The iPad is great for consuming content while I see the Eee Slate being more of a productivity tool. Coupled with a keyboard, the Eee Slate is basically a laptop. When Asus releases some android tablets, we'll see how well they stack up.
