Japanese IT company NEC Corporation has announced a new Windows 7 tablet as part of its LaVie series.

Simply called the LaVie Touch, the 10.1-inch tablet will be sporting a 1280x800 resolution IPS display, 1.5GHz Atom Z670 processor, 2GB RAM, 64GB SSD, 2x USB 2.0, HDMI, Bluetooth, SD card reader and a front-facing camera. In all, the tablet will be 0.62 inches (15.8mm) thick and weigh about 1.6 pounds (0.73kg).

Users can outfit the tablet with its own docking station, wireless keyboard and mouse as well. The docking station in particular doubles as a stand and includes a DVD drive.

The LaVie Touch will be on sale in Japan starting October for ¥94,500 ($1230) including the add-ons mentioned above. An international launch has yet to be announced.

After graduating with a B.S. in environmental hydrodynamics from the University of California, I studied reactor physics to become licensed by the U.S. NRC to operate nuclear reactors. There's a striking level of appreciation you gain for everyday consumer electronics after working with modern nuclear reactivity systems astonishingly powered by computers from the 80s. When I'm not managing day-to-day activities and US review articles on Notebookcheck, you can catch me following the eSports scene and the latest gaming news.
