Asus Airo – An Origami Folding Laptop
Tuesday, March 24th, 2009
Looks like Asus got fed up of releasing gazillions of cumbersome Asus Eeepc models. They finally decided to come up with a totally different model. Check out the Asus Airo, the origami inspired folding laptop. It’s sliding keyboard enables ventilations to the laptop. To make this even more tempting, the price is much more affordable compared to other ultra-slim laptop such as Macbook Air and Dell’s Adamo. The estimated price range of Asus Airo is between $1,000 and $1,500. The target date for commercial release would be at September and October. No word about the specs, but I’ll post it up soon.

Despite it’s ergonomic design, it looks delicate enough to make you wonder it’s longevity. I hate to imagine accidentally dropping this and scatters into gazillion pieces.
