Sony India tod
ay showed off its efforts with the next generation hybrid Ultrabook, the Vaio Duo 11. This device can switch between being a tablet and being a full-fledged ultrabook
The Sony Vaio Duo 11 has an 11.6-inch Full HD touch panel. The Surf Slider design allows you to switch between tablet and ultrabook mode by just sliding the display forwards and up or back and down. The hybrid device features the Opti-Contrast panel which is slightly different from a conventional touchscreen panel – the touch panel and the LCD are joined together with glue, as compared to the conventional panel that has an air gap between the LCD and the touch panel layer.
The Vaio Duo 11 comes with a variety of connectivity options as well – two USB 3.0 ports, one USB 2.0 port, Ethernet, memory card slot and a full HDMI port. One of the USB 3.0 ports also doubles up as the Sleep Charge port, which lets you charge any connected phone even while the Duo 11 may be in sleep mode or completely shut down.
Just to run you through the specs on the Vaio Duo 11, an Intel Core i5-3317U processor will power it. This is the same one clocked at 1.7GHz that we have seen on multiple ultrabooks. This will be paired with 4GB of system RAM, and storage will be on a 128GB SSD. No word yet on whether the SSD will be available in various capacity options. A 64-bit version of Windows 8 will come preloaded on the device, but is the base edition, that should not be confused with Windows 8 Pro or Windows 8 RT.

'Bullett Raja' Is A Flop

Bullett Raja has flopped at the box office. After taking a barely average start at the box office, the film didn't show much of a growth over the weekend. The weekdays saw further dip in collections, hence making it crystal clear that neither was audience much excited about stepping in while those who eventually did weren't quite enthusiastic in sharing positive word of mouth. Eventually, it turned out to be a 'thanda' affair at the box office with just about 35 crore coming at the end of first week. Now these are the kind of collections that should have ideally been accumulated by the film over the weekend! The verdict was more or less out soon after the film released and as a result the promotional effort too came to a standstill. Saif, who doesn't believe in over-promoting a film when the writing is clear on the wall, went silent. Sonakshi moved on to R... Rajkumar. Jimmy was busy with shooting of his films and Tigmanshu wasn't heard much either. As a result...
