Abstract: We've seen the Padfone before at Mobile World Congress where it was first announced and at the time were assured it wasn't in a production-level state. Despite the fact that Asus just announced the Padfone would be launched Summer 2012 the models we've se...
Abstract: That's because the Padfone is a smartphone , tablet and notebook all in one. And it's designed exceptionally well. We're looking at an April release date at present and there's no official word on pricing just yet, although it will be more expensive than ...
