Microsoft tried making its WINDOWS 8 TABLETS more convenient
and laptop look alike by introducing a Touch Cover that includes a built-in
keyboard, but other manufacturers hoping to bring more in the market to make it
more feasible for the users by providing traditional laptop trappings with your
new Windows 8 slate. While a number have teased with so-called hybrid or
convertible models -- which usually consist of a detachable or hinged tablet
and a traditional laptop keyboard -- it's only in recent weeks that they have
started firming release plans.
First, Lenovo confirmed a couple of weeks ago that it's
introduing the IdeaPad Yoga convertible device for both Windows 8 and
Windows RT flavors. Now, Samsung has plastered its Facebook page with an image
of what appears to be its Series 5 Hybrid PC bearing the text "Ready to be
smart? IFA 2012, Berlin" and the caption "Don't worry, it's just
around the corner," indicating that the device will be unveiled at this
year's consumer electronics show IFA in Berlin, running August 31 - September
5. Samsung is also expected to use IFA to unveil their next-gen smartphone /
tablet hybrid -- the Galaxy Note II at the event. Other highly anticipated
releases at this year's IFA include Sony's high-end smartphone the Xperia SL
and LG's Optimus Vu.
Tablets running the Windows OS is hoping to run good in the
market, and adding hinges and magnetic docks will only raise the sticker price
on convertible models. Will there be enough pleasure and convenience involved
in these devices to worth the extra is a real big question ?
