Ever wonder what it would be like to have a tablet that could run both Android and Windows 8? Well now you can, as ASUS has just announced the Transformer Book Trio, a tablet that is capable of switching between an Android tablet, a Windows 8 desktop PC, as well as a Windows 8 notebook. ASUS has included their signature dock, which allows the tablet of “transforming” into a fully equipped notebook PC.  As far as storage goes, up to 64GB is available inside the tablet, but the PC Station Dock possesses its own 4th generation Core i7 processor, a 750GB hard drive, as well as a full featured keyboard.
There are also some pretty awesome specs inside the tablet, including a 11.6-inch 1920 x 1080 display, a 2Ghz Intel Atom Z2580 processor to run Android, and a Intel Core i7 4500U in order to power Windows 8. Other than that, no other pricing or availability was announced by Asus, but we should hear more news about it as its launch nears.
