ViewSonic ViewPad 10 Tablet Review

The ViewPad 10 measures 10.8 by 6.7 by 0.57 inches (HWD) in portrait view. It's longer than the Apple iPad 2 ($699, 4.5 stars), though not as wide. The ViewPad 10's screen is best viewed in a landscape orientation, which provides a nice 16:9 aspect ratio for viewing video. Unfortunately, its narrow form factor proves awkward for most everything else. The ViewPad 10 weighs 1.93 pounds, making it heavier than the iPad 2 (1.35 pounds), and Motorola Xoom ($599 with contract, 3.5 stars) (1.6 pounds). Compared with similar Windows-based convertible tablets, it's a good deal lighter than both the Dell Inspiron Duo ($549 direct, 2.5 stars) (3 pounds) and Lenovo IdeaPad S10-3t ($650 direct, 3.5 stars) (2.8 pounds). Granted, the Dell Duo and the Lenovo IdeaPad are both convertible tablets with their own dedicated keyboards.
