Asus R1F Notebook to Tablet PC Convertible Review

The R1F isn't as small as some other Tablets on the market such as Fujitsu's T4215, but it still is certainly still portable. Weighing in at 4.3 lbs, the R1F can go where ever you need to go. The 13.3" screen makes reading documents and viewing...

It is affordable, for all the features ; Great packaging and accessories included ; Love the Core 2 Duo processor ; Good display ; Hot swappable ODD/ Super Multi Optical Drive
