Although Apple have managed to monopolize the day with their Special Event where they took the wraps off the new iPad, smaller companies didn’t call it quits and got the balls to announce new products. One of them is ASUS who have confirmed this morning that they’re actually working on an Eee Pad tablet and who have announced availability for their 3D notebook, the ASUS G51J 3D, starting February.

The ASUS G51J 3D laptop has made it to TFTS some 3 months ago when we learned that the device is going to feature Nvidia’s 3D Vision active shutter technology and an impressive 120Hz 15.6-inch LCD panel that does 1,366×768 pixel resolutions and which requires you to wear special 3D Vision shutter glasses (60Hz on each eye, which makes it 3D). Other specs include a GeForce GTX 260M graphics card (1GB), an Intel Core i7 processor and built-in Altec Lansing speakers.

The fun thing about the G51J is the fact that it brings an USB-based IR transmitter to enable spatial depth in 3D games, probably why the notebook ships with a 3D Avatar game, with Resident Evil 5, World of Warcraft, Borderlands, and Batman: Arkham Asylum, waiting in queue to be converted.

Expected to be released sometime next month, the ASUS G51J 3D notebook will cost some $2,750.
