The Asus Eee Tablet is an electronic bloc-note that uses a 64-levels grayscale display to display black and white content at the resolution of 1024×768. Asus has built it to make the paper and pen obsolete, which is quite an ambitious goal. The device uses a pen as an input device and Asus touts that the display sensitivity is 2450 dpi, which means that we’re reaching sub-pixel accuracy here. Thanks to that level of precision, Asus believes that the Eee Tablet (do not confuse it with the impressiveEee Pad!) will be an ideal note taking and sketching device. Of course, it can also display eBooks and text without a sweat.
If you are curious, the battery life is claimed to be 10 hours, and the price will be set at $199 to $299 depending on models. The Asus Eee Tablet will be commercialized in September. What do you think? In these days of multi-touch, do you miss using a pen?
