Well Well Well, look who has decided to show up? Its HP Slate, the Tablet that has had an undecided future so far but this is all going to change today. CNET has received an email which besides containing some close up shots of the Windows 7 powered Tablet brings the good news of HP Slate 500 getting an official announcement come 25th October.
Here is what you can expect from the hardware side of things:
The 8.9-inch LED-backlit display sports a 1,024×600-pixel resolution. The 500 comes with Windows 7 Professional installed, a 1.86GHz Intel Atom Z540 processor, and a 64GB solid-state drive. Also inside: an Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 500, a combination stereo headphone-microphone jack, a VGA (video graphics array) front-facing Webcam, a 3-megapixel camera on the back, Bluetooth connectivity, and 802.11b/g/n wireless connectivity. It weighs just 1.5 pounds, has an 8.9-inch multitouch display and two cameras, and it takes input from a stylus, which they’re calling the HP Slate Digital Pen.
So what do you think is HP Slate an iPad competitor?
