The Asus EP121 is among the biggest slates you’ll see unveiled at the show, boasting a 12-inch screen and weighing 2.5-pounds. By comparison, the Apple iPad runs a 9.7-inch widescreen and weighs a pound less than the EP121. The screen uses a 1,280-by-800 resolution, which is interesting because it’s based on a 16-by-10 aspect ratio that most laptops have moved away from, in favor of a 16-by-9 one.

The Eee Pad Transformer is an Android 3.0 Honeycomb tablet with a 10.1-inch, 1280-by-800 IPS touch-screen display. It runs on an Nvidia Tegra 2 processor with support for Adobe Flash, HD video conferencing and playback, and mobile gaming. It includes a 2.1-megapixel front-facing camera and 5-megapixel rear camera, as well as a mini-HDMI port for full 1080p video playback. It’s 0.51 inches deep. Asus said the device is ideal for those who want to enjoy multimedia content on the go but still use the tablet for business-oriented tasks.
