Eee Slate Review – ASUS Eee Slate EP121-1A011M 12.1-Inch Tablet PC Overview
One sentence: ASUS Eee Slate EP121-1A011M 12.1-Inch Tablet PC is the best PC I have ever bought! Got it at $899,99 here
About two years ago, I looked for a powerful machine, of course I went with the great machine, MacBook Pro the 17-inch.
(our website is reviewing the 13-inch MC700LL A)
The MacBook Pro 17-inch was definitely a great machine with a powerful performance, but unfortunately some of my older applications which I use for working and business are running only on Windows.
Besides I needed Windows, the 17-inch MBP is definitely not a great machine when you travel a lot like me.
I am always on the way, therefore, I have been searching for a travel computer.
I did try iPad, but I was not so satisfied with it, well, iPad was not bad at all, but it could not do the office jobs like I would want it to do.
Some of my office applications, email and my business calendaring did not work well with iPad.
Furthermore, I sometimes need a keyboard and also a mouse when I work. Some stuff that Apple will forbid me to do, because of their license agreement.
If I would jailbroke my iPad, my problems will still remain, especially the lightweight machine features with the touch screen along with my office applications, as well as my entertainment stuff that I want.
After the iPad, I went to another Asus machine, but because it was very sluggish when I run a lot of applications, and I heard that ASUS Eee Slate EP121-1A011M 12.1-Inch Tablet PC was released at CES, I went there and pre-ordered one right away.
I think I was the first person who pre-ordered ASUS Eee Slate EP121-1A011M. I did order it, with a bit doubt, can this machine satisfy me?
Asus Eee Slate EP121-1A011M 12.1-Inch Tablet PC Bad and Good Reviews
After a month waiting, finally I got this ASUS Eee Slate EP121-1A011M, the set up was incredible easy, and since then, this is my core and important PC.
It replaces my 17-inch MacBook Pro mostly when I am at work, because its huge tablet screen display, its weight, and tons of functionality is flat out awesome!
Doing handwriting with ASUS Eee Slate EP121-1A011M 12.1-Inch Tablet PC is so great because it comes with a stylus pen.
I always brought this tablet whenever I travel for business, and it is flat-out the best.
You can do anything that MacBook Air does, and it is lightweight and is very portable like iPad. It is simply a cross between those devices, but more affordable price. The only very small complain is the 4 hours battery life.
It would be better if I can get it for about 10 hours, but this is a really minor complain.
