Ripple Unveil Highly Desirable Ripple Tablet T8100 PC Aimed at Korean Market

At the beginning of the year we posted about the Ripple-Mini Mini-ITX computer which, at the point of writing, was just about to be released on the Korean market for a staggeringly diminutive price of a mere €90 / $132 / £67, well now the same company is poised to release its newest product in the form of this Ripple Tablet T8100 Notebook PC which, we expect, will also retail at an astonishingly low price point – though pricing details are yet to be confirmed.

At the point of writing few details are known concerning the device though we can confirm that the T8100 sports a 12.1” WXGA 1280 x 800 resolution TFT LCD that’s mounted on a swivel joint (allowing the device to be used as a traditional notebook or as a tablet PC) and that its based on a 2.1GHz Penryn Intel Core 2 Duo hooked up to an Intel GM965 / ICH8M chipset with 800MHz FSB and Intel GMA X3100 on-board graphics running Windows Vista (though XP is a user option), comes with 1GB of 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM (expandable to a maximum of 4GB) and a 2.5” SATA 120GB HDD complimented by a DVD recorder and offers an onboard webcam, 3xUSB ports, an integral 7-in-1 card reader and 802.11 A/B/G and Ethernet connectivity.

No word as of yet concerning the Ripple Tablet T8100’s pricing but, if its anything like the Ripple-Mini, expect an especially low price point that will have everyone who lives outside Korea biting at the bit.

I’ve been using this laptop for over 1 year.
The idea of rotatting monitor is very good.
Touch screening does not work properly when the screen is rotated inside.(It is rotated on clockwise)
The white color looks nice.
But It’s too heavy for a 12.1″ portable laptop.
The temperature is very hot, when it runs for long.
Hope HP would manufacture a similar laptop surely with a better quality.
Or, In my opinion, Apple will be developing(or already on it) rotatable macbook.
