Asus Transformer Book Trio world first "3-in-1" device( Android+windows 8 laptop+PC)

Asus Transformer Book Trio

Asus Transformer Book Trio is a "three-in-one" device and its ability to function as an Android tablet on its own or as a Windows 8 (or Android) laptop when connected to its dock. As a third option, detach the tablet part of the device and the keyboard dock can act as a fully-fledged Windows 8 desktop PC on its own when connected to an external VGA or HDMI monitor.

This means you can use the tablet in Android mode at the same time as using the dock connected up to an external monitor in Windows 8 mode. Theoretically, at least, it opens up the doors to some nifty remote desktop-based action. Say you've got a meeting - for example - you could use the device as a laptop, detach the tablet, fire up TeamViewer or RealVNC and carry on viewing the contents on your external monitor on the Trio's PC Station.

One caveat of all of this is that the tablet can't be used in Windows 8 mode when detached as it automatically switches back to Android.

Switching between the two operating systems is as simple as pressing what Asus dubs the 'Trio' key, which is located on the top-right hand side of the keyboard. The actual switch is almost instant, taking around a second at the most. It holds a unique appeal if you can't be without your Android apps on a tablet and need the functionality of full-fat Windows 8.1.
