PeeWee PC ships second convertible tablet PC
PeeWee PC has introduced its second convertible tablet for kids in the PeeWee Pivot 2.0 notebook. It replaces the original Pivot introduced in 2009, is rugged with a waterproof keyboard and sports a rotating touchscreen that pivots and turns the notebook into a touchscreen tablet. The device weighs 3.7lbs.
A webcam is built-in, while it has been upgraded to a 1.66GHz Intel Atom to go along with 1GB of RAM. Preloaded software still includes Windows XP Home and 15 educational games. PeeWee Patrol and Privacy limits time spent browsing and gaming while blocking sites. Parents can also access browsing history and control the notebook remotely.
The 10.1-inch touchscreen has a 1024x600 resolution, though it can be optioned up to a 1366x768 screen. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are integrated, while a 160GB hard drive stores data.
The PeeWee Pivot 2.0 is available now for $599.
