Dell's 'Dual Personality' Laptop

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the i-still-want-one dept.

njkobie writes "Dell was the unlikely star of today's keynote at IDF, unveiling a convertible tablet.

The screen rotates inside the frame, taking it to the netbook form factor. It runs on an Atom processor and will be available at the end of the year, Dell said."
