together we're looking at 3900 yes ok not bad not bad it's pretty good there's nothing in here at all really except for just to display this appears to be a plastic type material yes this would be a speaker here yes now for the back the Padfone infinity we're only going to be looking at a hspa+ variant right ya know we are we will have LTE version will have an LC yeah so we have a LED version so

nine euros yes it has a very premium price we are sent es es se but considering technology 1080p display in both yes and a front camera is to make up is 0 and on the rear 13-megapixel right yes that's right epic hammer i study make up a cell with 2.0 dance yes it's very good dance so what kind of consumer you think would want to have a bad I sing the consumer who like innovation product yeah would like to buy our product and and the one is if we want a big screen yeah for example I show you a picture the smartphone's screen is too small for you to look so you can plug into the pay station and share with others ensure with your old friend or your family yes very fast we are very very dispersion the DDS is our product product pretty proud on this technology you should be proud it's very innovative yes and so do we when when do we think we will go and sale in North America will it be going on sale in North America we are planing but right now we have no I'm not sure yes yeah we know we're not sure so what is the battery life when it is all connected it's similar to most of us around 10 hours 8 hours a night a smartphone for Sri to talk about it so around night on NYE hours but when you plug into the PlayStation 3 times we change to 27 hours okay brain interesting yes yes so where can we go from here how much thinner can the PadFone get can you get much thinner can you talk about some of the innovation you have in mind for the future in the future yeah mmm what can you do to make it better I think we could improve the battery or density energy density that's right to see a thing to get a thinner battery to get the finger perform and pay station so this is you said eight point six millimeters I believe put the phone for the phone yes a poll knife so I sorry 8.9 knife I a point nine millimeter and how thick is the base station itself oh this this is a 10.5 10.5 10.5 bad not bad and it has expandable memory in the phone can be expanded as well yes yes yes and so what what memory capacities are going to go and sale oh I think will be two options 32 gigabyte and 64 gigabytes and you can also have a microSD so you know we don't have my clothes ready IM is there are you you have a memory export in here as well or you can plug we we support USB host okay yes people can have it extend extend a memory very interesting okay yes I'm really excited about this is the third version you know so yes one yet yes it's packing all the latest technology of all the most competitive smartphones on the market right now yes Snapdragon 600 yes all you have to do is get the

audience you know they're very very excited about the PadFone yes it did remain too expensive for a lot of people at around the nine hundred dollar price point I know we will try to get the path station wrightstown that's right another question that we've been asked to previously there was the dongle at the bottom yes or potential what we thought it could work with was the keyboard similar to the transformer Phineas but I don't think that's there anymore is it because we want to use bluetooth keyboard bluetooth keyboard yes yes yes I think using my bluetooth keyboard oh yeah for sure

thank you very much for your time th ok thank you my real pleasure yes Sandra authority we know a lot of you guys are looking for innovation and there's a lot of innovation coming from asus and i'm from android and we really have to commend asus4 continue to push the envelope they faced a lot of flak from the FCC and from a lot of the carriers you don't like the idea of consumers having only one device that they can share their data connection with and so we have to take our hats off to them you say thank you very much for trying to innovate ok for consumers thank you thank you say thank you
