Netbooks typically follow the same formula: slap together the power-hungry Intel Atom with an over-the-hill 90’s OS, and there you have it. Always Innovating has created something new, unique, and absolutely mind blowing with the “Touch Book” netbook, that works both as a netbook and as a standalone tablet by removing the detachable keyboard and working with a 3D touchscreen user interface.

The Touch Book uses the ARM processor from Texas Instruments, which is capable of providing you with the power of a desktop PC without all of the high energy demands.
Much like your cellphone, the Touch Book is always on, meaning that you can bypass any lengthy boot processes, and since it has no fans or disk drives, it won’t make any noise while operating! Capable of operating in one of two modes (keyboard and touchpad mode, or tablet mode), the 3D interface is easy to use, and allows you to work without a stylus or tiring out your pinky. Additionally, the Touch Book will include Mozilla’s upcoming mobile browser (codenamed Fennec), which was created specifically to cater to the needs and capabilities of touchscreen devices.

Specifications:

  • 9.4″ x 7″ x 1.4″ for 2 lbs (with keyboard)
  • ARM Texas Instruments OMAP3 chip
  • 1024×600 8.9” screen
  • Storage: 8GB micro SD card
  • Wifi 802.11b/g/n and Bluetooth
  • 3-dimensional accelerometer
  • Speakers, micro and headphone
  • 6 USB 2.0 (3 internal, 2 external, 1 mini)
  • 10h to 15 hours of battery life
