ASUS Powers the New Tablet with Android Honeycomb

ASUSTeK Computer Incorporated, а Taiwan-based computer manufacturer, has officially shared information regarding the new Eee Pad MeMo tablet.

The essential part is the operating system that is nothing but Android 3.0 Honeycomb. The device also boats a 1.2 GHz Snapdragon processor that supports 1080p video playback, which is great. The new processor implementation, however, is slowing down the release of the tablet, because all the existing Android Honeycomb models feature NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor instead.

Network-wise the tablet supports HSPA+ 3G, including 850 MHz, and a 1900 MHz band for North America.
The WSVGA display of Eee Pad MeMo has a 1024×600 resolution and is powered with a 1.2 GHz Qualcomm processor.

The whole 1 Gb of RAM will go with any model, while hard discs will contain from 8 to 64 Gb of data, depending on a model. The cameras of the device are standard: the front one takes 1.2 megapixel photos, but the 5-megapixel camera in the back boasts a decent flash.

The tablet supports Bluetooth 2.1+EDR and has an HDMI port, so it’s pretty much a full package, indeed. And if you doubt it, do consider that Eee Pad MeMo has a 3.5 mm headphones jack, a microUSB port, a digital compass, a proximity sensor, a luminance sensor and a G-sensor, too.

There is no information regarding the price of the tablet, but, considering the serious upgrade Android developers are preparing for the operating system, Eee Pad MeMo will not play an easy-to-get.
