Asus Slate EP121 Tablet PC arrives!

Asus Slate EP 121 slate Tablet PC just arrived! Windows 7 (Home premium, 64 bit) OS so I can run Windows applications. Large screen – 12.1” – for easier display and input of Windows applications. Speaking of input – dual capacitive screen + active (Wacom) digitizer. Powerhouse: Core i5 (U470) processor + 4 GB DDR3 RAM + 64 GB SSD. Relatively light for a 12.1” screen; 2.6 lbs. Also relatively light on the pocketbook – $1,046. Just setting up now before I have to go teach tonight so battery life unknown. Will be writing more!

  furythree, CDW. They don’t stock. They order from ASUS. Ordered March 1, arrived March 17. So about 2 weeks.

Just wondering if you’ve tried using a secondary display that requires VGA input? I gather that you can’t just use a mini-HDMI to VGA converter because the mini-HDMI signal is digital, rather than analogue, and requires a powered converter to transform the signal as required for a display/projector with VGA input?
