EeePad tablets on sale in Jan

05:55 AM Nov 05, 2010
TAIWAN'S Asustek Computer will start selling its first tablet computers in January next year, joining other rivals to compete with Apple in the fast-growing market.

An official said that the company will sell its EeePad tablets running Windows software in January, followed by others with Google's Android system in April.

Tablets, with their bright LCD touchscreens and longer battery lives, have hurt sales of regular laptop computers.

Apple controlled 95 per cent of the market for tablet computers with its iPads in the July-to-September quarter, according to research firm Strategy Analytics. REUTERS
