Modded Asus Eee PC 701 tablet features Flash, snappy touch input and lots of ports

We love when people build tablets out of modified software. It shows that people really love the form factor of a tablet and want it so bad that they’re willing to build it themselves. In this case, the modder is mxjf from the EeeUser forum. He takes an Asus Eee PC 701 and puts on quite a show.

The tablet mod features Windows XP, 1GB of RAM, 4GB SSD, Ethernet, 3 USB, audio in/out, VGA, SD card and an Intel Celeron 900MHz CPU. The speed of the touch interface in the video puts a lot of manufactured tablets to shame. It even incorporates flick scrolling through an additional plugin. As mxjf states in the video, it has no multitouch capability, but it can multitask, play Flash and has plenty of USB ports and an SD card slot to fulfill all of your desires. Some people may desire that a certain turtle-necked man sat down in a chair and played with something like this, rather than the demo we saw last month.

All we want to say to mxjf and others like him is keep up the good work. If you feel the same, stop by his YouTube page and leave some encouraging comments for him.
