February 23, 2014
After months of waiting, some of the first 64-bit tablets with Windows 8.1 and Intel’s Bay Trail chips were announced by Hewlett-Packard.HP’s ElitePad 1000 G2 and ProPad 600 G1 are targeted at business users. The tablets have 10.1-inch screens with resolutions of 1920 x 1200 pixels, and run on Intel’s quad-core Atom processors with clock speeds starting at 1.6GHz.The ElitePad will be priced at US$739.99 and ship worldwide in March. The ProPad 600 price wasn’t provided, but it will be priced lower as it has fewer features, said Derek Everett, director of worldwide product management for commercial Windows tablets at HP.The release of 64-bit Windows 8.1 tablets with Atom chips was delayed due to limitations in the OS concerning some tablet features. The first tablets out of the gate in September last year had 32-bit Windows, but Microsoft has now resolved the issues.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here
