Sharp goes big with 15.6-inch Windows 8.1 tablet - chairman - 01-16-2014
Sharp's taking the high-pixel-density road with a new 16-inch-class Windows 8.1 tablet.
This could be the year of the large tablet and Sharp just chimed in with a 15.6-inch model with a 3,200x1,800 (WQHD) display and a Core i5-4200U processor.
Samsung announced a 12.2-inch tablet at the Consumer Electronics Show, and Apple is rumored to be working on a 13-inch class tablet.
The 2.7-pound, 0.5-inch thick Sharp RW-16G also packs 4GB of RAM, 128GB solid-state drive, a Mini DisplayPort, USB 3.0 ports, an SD card slot, and Windows 8.1 Pro.

Wow just what are the limits to the tablet craze. The manufacturers don't know whether they're coming or going, first it was the "mini tablets" now it is the super sized ones? I think we as the consumers are to blame as well, as soon as a new piece of tech hits the market, never mind how utterly useless or redundant it is, we scoop it up with out a second thought....
