CES 2011: More Tablets from ASUS

Vizio just hit the stage with their latest tablet and smartphone yesterday. We should have waited knowing that this is the CES of tablets so that we could do it in one post :)

Asus is announcing four tablets at CES 2011.

• 7" Asus Eee Pad MeMO running Android3.0, available June 2011, $499
• 10.1" Asus Eee Pad Transformer running Android 3.0 available April 2011, $399-$699
• 10.1" Asus Eee Pad Slider running Android 3.0 available May 2011, $499-$799
• 12.1" Asus Eee Slate EP121 running Windows 7 available January 2011, $999

This is why it is a good idea to manufacture a tablet this year:

Vizio Back Again: VIA Tablet and Smartphone running Android

Another thing to look forward to CES Jan 6-9 2011 is Vizio's launch of the VIA Tablet and Smartphone, say the folks at BGR.

The last time Vizio did a 'first', was to release a high quality - high value Television set. I remember telling some friends about this company Vizio and how good their TV was and everyone I knew got one. The rest is history. Vizio both took a fair market share and lifted total category dollars, making it easier for people to trade up and buy a flat panel television.

Tablets are nice toys; smartphones are becoming our next necessity. Let's see how these devices standout at CES and if they're capable of repeating history, resulting in increased tablet and smartphone adoption globally.
