My general experience with this device was good. It has a beautiful design, simple and useful.

Pros

Very easy to use.

Excellent and modern design.

Good sound quality.

Excellent keyboard until... (see my comment below "After a Year")

Good Touch screen.

Other applications included like: GPS (using wi-fi), compass, etc.

It has a slot for inserting a celular phone SIM card, however it is not ready to be used. I thing this will be available in the future.

Good colors and screen resolution acceptable.

You can use the computer with the keyboard and the touch screen at the same time. Awesome.

Good webcam included.

This is the few net computers with Windows 7 home edition.

Silent and quite.

Cons

Few information of this computer in the DELL site. I hope to have more information from DELL.

Acceptable performance. Nothing too fast, nothing too slow.

When used for long periods tends to generates a bit of heat.

It does not have a flashlight on the keyboard to work at night.

It has a lot of useless DELL software installed, most of them "LITE" versions constantly requiring purchase of the full "PRO" versions.

USB port cover is not practical to use when the computer is on a flat surface.

Other comments:

I like Google Chrome, however for this software the Touch capabilities are not good. I'm using IE 9, it uses the touch screen capabilities in a good way.

I was very dissapointed when I received the computer in a box where you can see in a picture the computer inserted in a Dell station, however when you open the box, you only find your computer alone. The Dell station is sold separately.

Have not a cover included. I bought a Belkin cover.

Strange behavior when the computer enters in Stand by alone. After this, you can listen some "beeps" and you need to try starting up the computer with a forced start up.

After a year

Problem issue with the keyboard. With a few utilization in general terms of the computer, after one year the keyboard presents problems with the following keys:

2, W, Backspace, \, Enter, PgDn, PgUp and Space.I run the Support Center Software and it indicates that everything is ok, however, the problem persists. You know, the computer is out of the original warranty.

All the other computer parts are good.

Buy Dell Inspiron Duo Convertible Tablet with Intel Dual Core 1.5GHz, 10.1" Multi-touch Screen with Web Now

I recently bought this computer, I had it for two days and decided to return it. tooooo slooow. I love the idea behind it, but dell needs to do more work on it before it could charge up to $800 for this computer. I did everything I could to speed it up, but there just isn't enough ram. HP also has a similar touch laptop, but is more expensive, but has more ram, I wonder if that will have better results. I would have loved tokeep it, I really do think it's going to be the next norm in computers, but it's just too soon maybe.

I don't post reviews on products often but I am so disappointed with this netbook that I've posted three times. I purchased this netbook in May and by August it was no longer working. After having Dell's techs run a diagnostic, going out and getting several independent opinions, Dell admitted several months later that I had a faulty hard drive. They had me send the netbook in for repairs and said they would send it back in 10 days.

Guess what? It's been 24 days and counting. They've now told me they don't have the parts to fix my hard drive and they want to give me a refurbished netbook to replace it. After several weeks of complaining they admitted that they are no longer producing hard drives for this netbook. In fact they are no longer producing the netbook at all. According to the tech I spoke with even customers who are currently ordering new Inspiron Duo convertible netbooks will be receiving refurbished units.I called the Dell sales department to verify and they are now having a clearance sale on this netbook with 'limited' supply.

Don't buy this netbook---it really is a shoddy product. Dell has obviously gotten the message that this product is nothing but trouble.

Want Dell Inspiron Duo Convertible Tablet with Intel Dual Core 1.5GHz, 10.1" Multi-touch Screen with Web Discount?

The design is so attractive , it flips from touch screen to keyboard, I thought I died and went to heaven.

3 days latter, for no apparent reason, it slowed down a lot. It was never fast to begin with but from running ok it turned into dead, frozen, not turning on!

Dell support team is composed of overseas crew who appear to tink that holding down the on/off button should solve everything. They did The bare minimum to help, tried to charge $230 for software reinstallation.

I gave up. I bought an IPad and now I am happy. The soft costs more but it doesn't freeze and it's lighter, better, cuter. So much better.

I would give Dell negative stars if I could. What a disappointment!

When I first got this computer I was thrilled with it. Well, it's almost two years later and I am pretty much still thrilled with it. I have had one problem that needed fixing, it stopped working properly a few weeks ago, but it's fine now. Overall it's been a good little computer. I don't use the flip screen very often anymore, the novelty wore off with that a few months after getting it. I don't use the touch screen anymore really either. I'm to the point that I feel the flip/touch screen is kinda unnecessary. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a notebook.
