London - Eee PC T91MT, the latest tablet PC from leading netbook maker Asus is the world's first netbook to sport multitouch screen.
Eee PC T91MT, which runs on the powerful Intel Atom Z520 1.33GHz processor, sports 8.9-inch swivel LED-backlit WSVGA multitouch screen with 1024x600 pixel resolution and boasts of features such as Windows 7 OS, Intel GMA 500 integrated graphics, shock-resistant 32GB SSD (Solid State Drive), 500GB online WebStorage, 1GB DDR2 RAM, WiFi, Bluetooth 2.1, 2 USB ports, Ethernet port, memory card reader, VGA port, 0.3-megapixel webcam, audio jacks and a battery which promises to keep the netbook juiced up to 5 hours without requiring a recharge.
But the best thing about the netbook is perhaps its multitouch screen. Despite being glossy (dust and grime magnet + expect annoying reflection when outdoor), the screen supports a wide variety of multitouch functions such as gesture. In other words, you can pinch, flick and swirl your fingers across the screen for intuitive navigation as well as scroll, pinch to zoom and flip through web pages, photos, spreadsheets and more.
However, Eee PC T91MT is not devoid of niggles. For instance. according to some early reviews, the audio quality is very poor (not unexpected as audio speakers are located under the palm rest), keyboard is stiff with crowded keys, the processor, though energy efficient, seems underpowered and battery is non-removable/non upgradable.
Other letdowns are non-availability of TV tuner, GPS and 3G.
Eee PC T91MT measures 225x164x25.2mm, weighs 0.96kg (2lbs) and retails in the US market for $550. However, no news is out yet about its price in the UK market.
