What a dealbreaker. Even the tablets were failures. First came out with a 9in screen which was sort of small, next they release a 10in version with outdated processing power. No Ion when the other players are planning to ship Ion2 on their systems? Directly competing? Really? Asus is just playing it way too safe.

The T91 is a convertible netbook/tablet, with a screen that can hinge to point down or up. The "giveaway" in the photo is the four small circles above the screen. Those are rubber pads meant to cushion the impact of the top of the screen on the keyboard when the lid of the T91 is shut. The row of four rubber shock-protectors also appears above the screens of other ASUS netbooks. But there's no obvious reason why a dedicated one-piece tablet would have this row of little rubber pads above (but not below) the screen. Since the image also shows the same lower-left switches as a t91, I think its a doctored T91 picture.
