Win 8.1 based Laptop cum Tablet from Notion Ink @ 19,990

The Notion Ink is making headlines again with the launch of Cain - the windows 8.1 tablet-PC hybrid with a proce tage of Rs 19990 right. It’s being described as a 2-in-1 PC because it functions like a tablet as well as a laptop of sorts. It plays the role of the latter when you hook it up with the docking station containing the keyboard.

Now Notion Ink has waded into Microsoft’s territory with the Cain that runs Windows 8.1 with Bing software. The device will be powered by Intel Atom Processor Z3735D. It will also have a large 7900 mAh lithium polymer battery to power the 10.1-inch 1280×800 IPS LCD display. This will give upto 7 hours of video playback or allows up to 10 hours of internet surfing on a single charge. The device will also have 2GB RAM and 32GB internal memory. Connectivity options include Wi-Fi and a USB 3.0 port.

The device comes with site warranty which will be valid for an entire year after purchase. So if there are any problems with the device, users will be first issued a brand new one and only then will the defective tablet/PC hybrid be picked up for repairs.
