ASUS may have Eee Pad Memo sequel ready
ASUS may have a sequel to the Eee Pad Memo ready if a leaked shot and details prove true. The seven-inch slate, possibly the Memo Pad appears a straightforward tablet in Notebook Italia's details, but it would be relatively high-grade relative to competitors. In tandem with a 1280x800 display, it would pick up a dual-core 1.2GHz Snapdragon processor, carry between 16GB to 64GB of storage, and even have optional 3G wireless and 3D display versions.
As shown, it would be running Android 3.2. ASUS has promised a relatively quick upgrade to Android 4.0 early this year, however, and may decide to ship the Memo Pad with Android 4.0 from the start.
Nothing is yet known about cameras or any specialty features, although the Memo Pad name implies it might support a pen.
The tablet is presumed to be unveiled at CES next week, although it may not ship for months.
