Meanwhile, the ViewPad 10Pro is a 10 inch professional tablet with dual boot functionality, lets users flick between Windows 7 Professional for work use and Android 2.2 for personal and social entertainment.
The dual-boot enables user to access business software and play on Android ‘without switching completely'.
