Asus MeMic completes MeMo tablet, stops by FCC

Bless your memory if you still happen to remember the Asus MeMic. Yes, the same device that had buzzed the tech scenario almost a year back. The transparent-screened peripheral has actually caught us off-guard this season as well by having halted on the FCC’s site just a while back. Though the miniature looking Asus MeMic made a quick appearance at the 2012 CES, we are not really sure if it’s the same MeMic we saw in the previous year. Some, however, believe that a significant update has been pushed inside the chassis.

Asus MeMic Bluetooth Accessory

For those who usually keep their ears covered, the purposive Asus MeMic is a tiny Bluetooth solution designed to function seamlessly with the company’s highly awaited Eee Pad MeMo tablet. Enclosed in a compact framework, the device which has been playing hide and seek for quite some time can be used as a remote control. In fact, the accessory can be conveniently employed to take and receive phone calls without really holding the 7 inch tablet.

Touted to be MeMo’s first accessory, MeMic aims at simplifying the entire experience of placing and taking phone calls for users who do not wish to hold a 7 inch tablet up to their face. Practically, the device can be a great option to bet the bottom dollar on given that ‘who would actually want a hefty tab on the face for indulging in conversations.’ The small companion solution should rather be time-honored for showing the possibility of transmogrifying a MeMo tab into a mobile phone.

Nevertheless, coming back to Asus’ refurbished tablet variant, the stylish MeMo will punch the clock with a considerable 7 inch display with a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixel. The foundation, on the other hand, will stem from Google’s incredibly powerful Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. Users will also find an efficient 1.3GHz Nvidia Tegra 3 quad-core processor under the hood. Some other highlights that should be packed in comprise 3G and Wi-Fi connectivity and flash memory ranging from 16 gigabyte to 64 gigabyte.

Be it staying connected with people around, surfing the web or watching videos, the computing solutions manages to look decently promising. But, with this much of a glimpse, we really cannot state if the tablet from Asus will be mighty enough to match strengths with other rivals on the market.

However, the Asus Eee Pad MeMo is expected to cost users around $249 but nobody knows if it will come with a stylus or if MeMic will prance as an entirely new model. The MeMic’s recent visit to FCC, on the other hand, suggests that the tiny device is all set to knock the shelves. Still, there is absolute no word on whether or not it will be made available across the United States. That yet again leaves us with being tight-lipped and to count the days for their final arrival.
