Asus PadFone to launch on 16th October...

Three days ago, we bought you news of an Asus PadFone successor sporting a quad-core processor with 2GB of RAM running the second from newest Android OS "Ice Cream Sandwich". Now invites are being sent out for an event that takes place simultaneously at Milan and Taipei on the 16th of October suggesting that the Asus PadFone 2 will be revealed at the event.

This is great news for those people who wish the original Asus PadFone had a better processor, the tablet dock for the phone may be updated, offering a higher 1200x1920 screen resolution (same as TF700 Infinity). The keyboard will undoubtedly be the same old but efficient qwerty keyboard.

Asus PadFone successor to come with quad-core and 2GB of RAM?

Remember that phone that turned into a tablet that turned into a netbook? Yes, the Asus PadFone! Well, it's successor may already be in development. Benchmarks have shown up sporting the "PadFone 2" name along with some specs including a quad-core processor with 2GB of RAM running Android 4.0 "Ice Cream Sandwich".

The details are very credible since the last PadFone sported a dual-core Qualcomm processor therefore a quad-core processor would be an obvious upgrade to the device. Bare in mind, the actual device is yet to be announced so don't rely on these details delivering.
