Stirring into the tablet segment, HTC has come up with its first tablet HTC Flyer. It is a portable 7-inch tablet with a magic pen that can do more for you than you can imagine. From creating masterpieces with a stroke of a paintbrush, to taking multimedia notes or even signing digital documents, HTC Flyer puts you in control of any situation. And with streaming movies at a touch of your finger, HTC Flyer turns any moment into something special.

At a basic level, HTC Flyer is an ultra-portable tablet with Android operating system and is powered by 1.5 GHz processor. It boasts of 1 GB RAM, 32 GB capacity along with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0, micro USB, and 3.5 mm universal jack for connectivity. To make it even better, it features dual cameras and has Adobe Flash 10, multi-window browsing with pinch to zoom, and a clever quick look-up that lets you tap into Wikipedia, YouTube and other Web resources.

The HTC Flyer features a strong aluminum unibody case that is lighter than an average paperback book complete with heavyweight features such as the integration of the acclaimed HTC Sense experience and unique HTC Scribe technology. First, HTC Sense offers a 3D home screen with a baggage of widgets that puts important elements at the visual centre of Sense. HTC Sense revolutionised smartphones by placing the person at the centre of the experience. HTC Flyer?s tablet-focused HTC Sense experience focuses on surprising and delighting people with its gorgeous 3D home screen.

Second, touch interaction lights up the HTC Flyer tablet experience, but it also offers a groundbreaking pen experience. With the new HTC Scribe Technology on the HTC Flyer tablet, people can rediscover the natural act of writing. HTC Scribe Technology introduces a wave of integrated digital ink innovations that make it easy and natural to take notes, sign contracts, draw pictures, or even write on a webpage or photo. HTC Scribe Technology on the HTC Flyer tablet transforms traditional note-taking into smart note-taking by integrating natural onscreen writing with thoughtful and integrated innovations.

A feature called Timemark enables you to capture the audio of a meeting in line with your written notes, so tapping on a word in your notes instantly takes you to that exact place in time in the audio recording of the meeting. Notes are also integrated with the calendar so when there is an appointment reminder you are automatically prompted with an opportunity to begin a new note. In an industry first, the HTC Flyer tablet also features built-in synchronisation with Evernote, the world-leading notes application and service.

The HTC Flyer tablet premieres HTC Watch, HTC?s new video download service. The HTC Watch service enables low-cost on-demand progressive downloading movies from major studios.
