Asus has launched its latest Ultra Mobile PC R2E in the Indian market. Claiming to offer the functionality of a conventional laptop and the user-friendliness of touch panel input on an intelligent digital writing pad, R2E is about the size of a paperback novel.

for a quarter of this price (17k-20k) you can get an ipod-touch. I dont see any sane person buying this. This price is insane that too for a broken OS which is totally unfit for this hardware. It is not even an intel atom!!!

This Rs 64,900 (USD 1510) is much costlier as compared to Samsung ultra Q1 (apprx 1000USD)? The specs on samsung ultra Q1 is fare much good as compared to this Asus R2E? India is only place where we still get either 1 or 2 yrs old gadgets at costly rate!

Though sounds good for MOMs(managers on move), the price does not justifies for a 800 MHz speed, are they doing marketing in 1990s where 800 Mhz was a God's gift. Forget the size !. Only intresting feature is SUN proof read.

"approximate price of Rs 64,900" have they gone mad?? In the age of ultracheap netbooks who will buy a useless 7"junk for Rs.64,900?? India surely is becoming the dumping ground for old and obsolate hardware. Intel Stealey A110 and Intel 945GU are anything 'new' ??? We must expect a more responsible article from Techtree.
