The Asus Padfone - an Interesting new product idea

Taiwan's Asus have launched a pretty cool looking new product idea the Padphone, a hybrid device that looks like a touch tablet but has a smartphone inside it. Both the phone and tablet run on the Google Android operating system. Pricing details of the new device are yet to be announced.

From the manufacturers:

With the Padfone, the smartphone docks inside the tablet to give users an expanded view to suit their tasks. With the phone docked, it can recharge from the tablet’s larger battery and the tablet can also make use of the smartphone’s 3G internet connection.

Whether the new product will be a success or not, we have no idea. We are sure of one thing though - this promotional video is hilariously cheesy!
