ASUS had plenty to say about its new tablet lineup but was pretty quiet about their new netbooks over at CES which is why many probably skipped past them. Many did notice the 12-inch Eee PC 1215b but there was also the 10-inch Eee PC 1015B, also packing the same as the 1215B, an AMD Fusion, Zacate based E-350 APU.

No new design with these. The 1015B looks exactly the same as the 1015N which is a good thing, as it has rather good ergonomics including a matte screen and rubberized chassis but still has a glossy screen bezel. There’s the usual 10.1-inch 1024 x 600 display and a couple of USB 3.0 ports included

    drop the keyboard and add a capacitive touchscreen and this could be the perfect tablet (I can dream can’t I?)

    Or have them update the Asus Eee Pad Transformer with Zacate and then you’ll have both a good Slate and a netbook with the keyboard dock…

    But unfortunately it’s harder to squeeze such performance into a slate form factor and they’ll likely limit it to an Ontario instead of Zacate…

    I really don’t see how slates are any different than netbooks someone on the eeeuser forums was able to mod an eeepc netbook into a slate.

    My fingers are crossed in hopes that this AMD totally kicks ass. Ah yes competition is such a great thing! Nobody tops Asus in terms of options and pusing the boundaries. They are my heros (aside from Peter).

    It’s the form and usage of the device. Basically all tablets fall into three main categories of Convertibles (most traditional tablet PC’s fall into this), Slates (no keyboard physically connected), and Hybrids (like the new Asus Eee Pad Transformer).

    Additionally a Slate, to be more practical, has to be light as possible and unlike convertibles all the hardware has to reside behind the screen. This gives less space for cooling and less space for things like batteries.

    So add all that together and it makes it harder to put the same level of performance in a slate than a traditional notebook, which has more space for everything and doesn’t have to be as light because you can set it down instead of having to hold it most of the time to use.
