A pretty amazing sounding tablet if you ask me. Along with the tablet announcement they also announced a keyboard dock/cover that was designed specifically for it,
the BKC50. Gives you a bit more of a notebook feel for productivity and protection. The funny thing, they didn’t make the caver and keyboard waterproof. Seems a bit silly. If you plan to do some blogging from the tub, you will probably want to stick to the virtual keyboard.
If you are itching to learn more and explore the new Xperia Z2 Tablet, then you will want to head over to
SonyMobile.com. I didn’t see any pricing listed in the press release or on their pages, but it is said to be
going on sale in the UK and wider in Europe in March. Don;t expect to see it under $700 USD though.
