Asus R1 Tablet with Core Duo now available

Asus_r1fWe saw the Asus R1F Tablet PC get the FCC nod back in May and it’s now available according to Mobile Tech Review. Some of the high level deets include:

  • Intel Core Duo OR Core 2 Duo
  • Integrated Intel PRO/Wireless for 802.11a/b/g
  • Capable of up to 2 GB of DDR memory
  • Widescreen 13.3–inch screen (WXGA) with 180–degree swivel
  • 80 to 120 GB hard drive
  • Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR
  • ExpressCard, Fingerprint reader, 8 in 1 card reader

Not bad for a machine that weighs under 4.4 pounds. If you’re looking now for a Core 2 Duo Tablet PC, this could be just the ticket. I’m looking forward to see how the battery life is based on the new Intel CPU.
