ModBook Pro goes on Pre-order
Totally too expensive, but it does have nice specs. Modbook Inc. has started taking pre-orders for the ModBook Pro. Priced at $3,499, the ModBook Pro features an Intel CoreTM i7 processor up to 2.9GHz, up to 16GB of RAM, a 480GB of solid state disk (SSD) and a stylus with 512 discrete pressure levels. The tablet draws its power from an Apple-standard 60W Magsafe adapter. The ModBook Pro will be launched in November 2012.
Following on from last week unveiling of their new Modbook Pro pen tablet system now equipped with solid state disk (SSD) options, Modbook Inc. has today announced that the new MacBook Pro based tablet is now available to pre-order.
As you would expect with a tablet constructed from the inner workings of a MacBook Pro 13.3. inch notebook, the new touchscreen Modbook Pro is priced at a lofty $3,499, and will be shipping in November 2012.
The new Modbook Pro is powered by an Intel CoreTM i7 processor up to 2.9GHz, supported by up to 16GB of onboard memory. Together with a 480GB solid state disk (SSD). Andreas E. Haas, chief executive officer and chief technology officer of Modbook Inc. explained in the press release today:
“We’re excited that customers will finally get the chance to configure and purchase their Modbook Pro. Each Modbook Pro is custom built to its owner’s requirements, and we’re confident the time and effort dedicated to the custom build will result in a fun and productive product for customers,”

Ahh I got confused because it is literally a 13" MacBook, but this company just took it and chopped the keyboard and CD drive off, gave it a touch screen, and doubled the price.
I think it's interesting that Apple allowed this company to make these.

Ahhhh Mac, staying true to the charging-consumers-way-too-much-for-way-too-little business model. I guess it works, considering they are the most valuable company in the entire world.
A $3500 over-power tablet is retarded.
