The star of the evening however is the Transformer Book T100 – a 10” notebook that splits to become a tablet when required. 64 gigs of flash memory inhabit the tablet side and there is no battery on the keyboard dock just like their newer line of Android transformers. What amazes me is that the screen at 10” already has the standard resolution that was afforded only to 11.6” and above prior to this model.

It utilizes an Intel Z3740 quad core Atom clocked at 1.33Ghz, 2 gigs of RAM, a front camera for video calls, a microUSB, microHDMI port, microSD slot, and 3.5mm headphone jack on the tablet side and a lone USB 3.0 port on the dock, all standard wireless connections, orientation sensors but no GPS… everything in a notebook really. Windows 8 is completely utilized with the capacitive IPS panel, comes with free Microsoft Office Home and Student 2013 and a year of Asus Web Storage – a steal for just under 25,000Php
