That was a bit rough. Very slow opening applications, bad benches, and mediocre battery life. Also slow when he was running the browser.

I honestly don't know why you'd buy it over the Asus T100 at the same price. I guess if you need more storage (it has 320GB 5200 hd)? Or really want 10 point multi-touch?

good question...

It might be laughable, but being windows 8 plus X86 makes it a very promising device, it can kill shield rather easy.

From your link.

"AMD does not plan to enter the market with a branded tablet and peripherals at this time."

It's a POC demo device. You can't buy that hideous thing (thankfully).

a bit OT but check this out
why is the power usage so different?
samsung ativ boom 9 lite [ 13W ]

acer v5-122p [ 23W! ]
http://www.notebookcheck.com/Test-Acer-Aspire-V5-122P-61454G50NSS-Notebook.92357.0.html

Economical in the stress test was only the Asus T100 (Baytrail atom), which draws only 11.8 watts from the mains. In idle this device requires even only 1.7 watts. The competitor Asus Vivo Book S300CA requires 146% and 51% more energy (Stress Test / Idle Low).

yeah, ips display, HDD, and keybacklight but does that add up to 10W difference...in any case too bad it costs so much

Its not that badly priced in the UK IMHO. It could probably do with another £30 to £50 price drop IMHO. Looking at some of the laptop forums owners threads,the screen is quite decent for something under £600,especially if you are doing a bit of light image editing on the move.

"rear camera of 2 MP" - why did they even bother with this. the specs look ok otherwise
