ASUS to pit Tegra 2 tablet against iPad

Posted on Thursday, January 28 2010 @ 12:18 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck

FUD Zilla received some information about the upcoming NVIDIA Tegra 2 based tablet device from ASUS. More info about this product is expected to be released at CeBIT in early March.

Asus device is powered by Tegra 2, dual-core ARM Cortex 9 based CPU and it will support multitasking. Even the non-Asus prototypes we used did supported the multitasking and this will be Taiwanese big opportunity in fight against Apple. Of course Asus, MSI are not as cool as Apple, but they will probably cost dramatically less than Apple's iPad.

Tegra 2 will also allow full 1080p HD playback and we can only suspect that Asus will ship its Tablet with an external HDMI connector and let you play HD content on a big screen.
