Roll out on for new
SideShow book
VIP COMPUTER CENTRE is now stocking a
dual screen notebook from ASUS featuring
‘SideShow’, designed for quick and easy access
on the go.
The ASUS W5Fe is a compact 12.1-inch wide
notebook with an additional 2.8-inch SideShow
display on the outer cover. The W5Fe’s auxiliary
display is a short cut to viewing a wide range of
information, including meeting schedules, phone
numbers, addresses and recent email messages.
The idea behind Sideshow is that if you need
to check a meeting agenda or new email while
on the move, you can access this data without
opening and booting up the notebook. It also has
the ability to keep you entertained on a long
journey, as you can use SideShow to view
photos, play music and games, and it can even
act as a mobile navigation device, guiding your
way with an onscreen map display.
Portable and powerful, the ASUS W5FE
features a slim, lightweight design and Intel
Centrino Duo Mobile
Technology. A built-in 1.3
mega-pixel 235-degree
swivel webcam and
microphone, plus exclusive
LiveFrame software developed for
the W5Fe, allows easy capturing,
recording and playing of photos and
videos too.
Product manager at VIP, Stuart Watson
said: "VIP is excited to introduce this
revolutionary laptop to the UK. As the first
notebook PC to support 'SideShow' gadgets, e.g. a
second screen on the external lid, the W5Fe has
already generated a huge amount of interest.”
Account manager for the Notebook Team at
ASUS, Valeriy Kosovan added: “Once again
ASUS has produced a highly innovative product.
The ASUS W5Fe is the first dual screen
notebook, allowing users to enjoy new Window
Vista features and making long journeys easier."
