Product Highlights
Portable and Powerful 
The 2.56 lbs slate is the first tablet featuring a full power Intel Core i processor. Featuring an
Intel Core i5-470UM processor and Intel GMA HD graphics, the Eee Slate delivers a
responsive multi-tasking performance and can handle the demands of office and educational
computing. The processor’s Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 along with Intel
Hyper-Threading technology allocates power to where it is needed the most so users can
maximize their productivity and experience a higher performance. The slate is able to
maintain a thin .67” profile and a lightweight form factor, thanks to the ultra-low voltage
Intel Core i5 processor, allowing mobile professionals and students to easily travel with the
slate. The Eee Slate PC also features a slim profile power supply that charges the slate PC
and any USB powered device simultaneously.
Multimedia Support
The EP121 offers a 12.1” LED-backlit (1280 x 800) multi-touch display with AFFS for users to
create and consume rich content. A 178 degree viewing angle from all sides permits easy
sharing of content with colleagues, regardless of how users rotate or hold the device. Users
can output Full HD 1080p content to a large external display to share presentations with
colleagues via the slate’s mini HDMI port. Additionally, the slate PC supports Adobe Flash
10.1, which allows professionals and students to view a majority of video and animation
found on the web.
 
Multiple Input Options
The Eee Slate offers users various input options, which include touch, stylus, or an external
Bluetooth keyboard. With the slate’s responsive, multi-touch screen, users can collaborate
on projects, create, and share presentations, by simply moving their fingertips. When using
the stylus, the slate features an intelligent palm rejection function for more accurate input.
An active stylus with Wacom digitizer enables more precise control and pressure recognition,
which works well with the pre-loaded Art Rage graphics application and is ideal for
professionals in the design field. The Eee Slate comes with a sleek Bluetooth keyboard for an
alternative input method.
Durability
Encased in the thin but durable AFFS panel, the Eee Slate EP121 stands up to the scuffs and
scratches incurred from frequent travel or classroom use. Optical bonding guards against
condensation and sunlight reflection, ensuring readability in various environments. Users can
choose between 2GB RAM/32GB SSD or 4GB RAM/64GB SSD. Solid State memory is a more
durable storage solution. It does not have moving parts and is less susceptible to physical
shock, protecting users against loss of data.  
Windows® 7 Home Premium
The Eee Slate runs Windows 7 Home Premium, which is compatible with programs most
students or traveling business professionals already use and are familiar with, so users can
get up and running quickly. Users do not have to spend time familiarizing themselves with a
new system and applications, as the Eee Slate supports the full Microsoft Office suite, which
includes Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Outlook, and other applications. With Windows 7, a
majority of devices, from cameras to printers, work with the slate PCs. When working on
multiple tasks at a time, users can arrange windows side by side with Snap, view thumbnails
and previews of open windows with Live Taskbar Previews, and quickly access recent files
with Jump lists. Windows Live Mesh syncs among all of a user’s computers, granting users
access to the latest version of a file from anywhere so users can stay productive anywhere.
 
Segment Focus
Education:  With the Eee Slate EP121 students can get more done and
teachers can create interactive lesson plans. An included Bluetooth
keyboard allows users to enjoy the productivity benefits of a traditional PC. 
Students can stay organized by tracking their assignments and taking class
notes with a stylus. Featuring numerous applications and a small form
factor, the slate PC lightens students' backpack loads by acting as a
one-stop solution for their needs. Teachers can use the slate PC to annotate
PowerPoint slides, which students can then save and view on their slates,
helping promote a more paperless, green academic environment. The mini
HDMI port allows teachers to stream interactive learning content to a large
external display to share with the classroom. With Adobe Flash supported,
teachers and students are granted access to a wider range of learning
content on the web. The slate's robust durable AFFS panel
protects academic institutions from costly repairs and downtime while the
durable SSD drive safeguards against loss of critical data from impacts.  
 
Business: Mobile professionals looking for a more convenient device to
travel with need to look no further. The Eee Slate EP121 is extremely
portable at 2.56 lbs, and features a .67” thin slim profile. A sleek external
Bluetooth keyboard is also included for more convenient long-term typing.
The display is made from durable and scratch-resistant glass and is
viewable at angles up to 178°. Windows 7 based, professionals can get up
and running quickly. The Eee Slate EP 121 is a great device for sales /
information sharing scenarios. When meeting with prospective customers,
sales representatives can share product portfolios with the slate while
illustrating their points using the stylus, rather than carrying around a
traditional cumbersome portfolio.  Featuring a responsive, 12.1” LED-backlit
(1280 x 800) multi-touch display with AFFS, the Eee Slate can be used in
customer-facing situations, such as a self-service kiosk in the hospitality
sector in which customers can check-in, check out, and make payments
with the swipe of a finger. The slate's front facing camera is convenient for
video conferencing.
Healthcare: The Eee Slate EP121 can help promote greener solutions in
the healthcare sector by supporting paperless recordkeeping. With the
slate’s responsive, 12.1” LED-backlit (1280 x 800) multi-touch display with
AFFS, facilities can have patients fill out forms via the slate PC and store
the forms in an online database, moving away from the traditional pen,
paper and filing method of tracking patients. Encased in a durable AFFS
panel, the slate resists damage from impacts. During consultations, doctors
can also use the slate to share photos of treatment methods with patients
and make notes on the medical images.
