Dell Inspiron Duo – Its a Tablet, no Netbook, no Both its a Hybrid PC

Year 2010 is marked as an year of Tablet PCs with release of iPad, Samsung Tab and even Dell had their Streak Android tablet. Now, Dell has come up with a Hybrid Tablet PC which is a combination of Notebook and Tablet. Sources says that this 10 inch Hybrid machine runs on Windows 7.

The “Touch Input War” from the Mobile Phone battle field has spread to the Personal Computers. Again spearheaded by Apple with its iPad and then followed by other like the Samsung Galaxy Tab, Archos 9 PC Tablet, Blackberry Playbook and more. Dell has tablet PCs like the Latitude XT2 and Tablets like Dell Streak in the market now. But I think this device is aimed at the fine line that exists between Tablets and Tablet PCs. Dell Inspiron Duo, a hybrid device that can switch from tablet to netbook just by a flip of the lid as shown in the Picture and the video below.
