Razer Announces Fiona Tablet


CES has been going on this week and there is plenty of new tech to drool over. I've never been one to really care much about general tech. The phone I use is a very basic flipphone with no camera. I do have an iPod Touch but bought one a long time after they came out. It usually takes a game device to make me start to salivate and eagerly wish I could get my hands on it.

Razer of course made an appearance at CES, one of the few companies I tend to be intrigued by when they go places. With promising tech like their extremely small netbook style gaming device, I can't help but perk up my ears when they talk.

Apparently, the company is also working on a tablet that will be powerful enough to run several PC games at decent settings. Nicknamed Fiona, videos of the device have been making the rounds. The one I have seen came from Destructoid and can be found here.

In the video, Skyrim is shown running on Ultra High settings and it looks pretty good for a tablet. I have no interest on playing my PC games on a smaller screen and rarely leave my house so the tablet is only a technological curiosity to me at this point. My only concern for Fiona is that the having to move a cursor around (watch the video) is a bit awkward and unwieldy. It's too far out to say anything about the device at this point but I am intrigued to see how the device performs and sells when it is released.
