Asus Eee Pad Slider SL101
Asus has a good reputation for reliability and their netbooks and notebooks are popular products.
This "slider" tablet partly crosses into the netbook market. It is built around an NVIDIA
processor and the Android operating system so is comparable to several other tablets on the
market, but the physical design is somewhat different. With one slide the Asus Eee Pad Slider
SL101 converts from a tablet pc to a netbook.
Features
The processor in this tablet is an NVIDIA Tegra 2; the operating system is the very popular
Honeycomb 3.2 and the tablet comes with 16GB memory and 1 GB of RAM. Additional storage
is supplied by a micro SD reader allowing expansion up to 32GB. Additional connectivity is
provided trough one USB 2.0 port and a mini HDMI for output to other media and HD
technology.
The slider comes with two cameras, a 1.2 mega pixel front camera and a 5 mega pixel rear facing
camera for video and conference calling. The tablet supports Adobe flash 10.3 so this is an ideal
movie and gaming machine, but it is also aimed at the business market with its laptop style
QWERTY keyboard and built in GPS plus E-compass, perfect for the travelling business person.
The Asus Eee Pad Slider SL101 comes with Polaris Office preinstalled so the user can edit
documents, presentations and work on spreadsheets. ASUS also include one year of unlimited
cloud storage through Asus WebStorage offer allowing backup and sharing of movies, photos
and tunes.

this tablet, model number ASUS SL101-B1-WT 10.1-Inch 32 GB Tablet (White).
Usability
As you would expect, the Eee Pad Slider is heavier than a standard tablet, weighing just over 2
pounds with a 10 inch by 7 inch and is about 3/4 inch thick. The screen is toughened and scratch
proof, a patented Corning® Gorilla® glass with 178° viewing angle (1280 x 800), LED backlit
panel and running on NVIDIA GeForce graphics it provides an excellent gaming experience and
high resolution display. The keyboard is a soft touch keyboard with specially moulded keys to
enable a comfortable user experience and the screen is a capacitive screen that is 10-finger
responsive. If you want more than a tablet but do not want to carry around a laptop then the Asus
Eee Pad Slider is a good compromise between the two.
