In the days before CES 2011, Asus is dribbling out a few close-up, high-res images of its upcoming Eee Pad tablets. One of the three "tablets" is clearly armed with a (most likely) full QWERTY keyboard, making it less of a tablet and more of a notebook. The photos�and other leaked information about the line ASUS plans to announce next week�were posted on Gizmodo, Slashgear, and Techinstyle.tv earlier today.
It is unclear whether the keyboard on the hybrid tablet is "slide-out" or transforms like the Dell Inspiron Duo, as Gizmodo theorizes. Last week, Slashgear published reports that the Eee Pad will feature one tablet that runs on Windows 7, powered by Intel's Oak Trail chips. If this is the case, don't be surprised to see Asus tablets pop up at Microsoft announcements next week, as Microsoft is heavily rumored to be focusing on a tablet-version of Windows and showcasing hardware from partners at CES 2011.
The other two rumored Eee Pad tablets are likely to be Android-based, though it seems unlikely they will be armed with Honeycomb. Thus far, only Motorola's upcoming tablet seems to have the latest Android update, which is intended to work on tablets, unlike Andriod 2.2 (FroYo), which is available on tablets (like the Samsung Galaxy Tab), but is not specifically designed for them.
