With the introduction of Intel’s Ultrabook category, and the hype surrounding tablets, computers are being released in a variety of form factors; some great, others downright whacky.

Heck, just last week Microsoft unveiled a tablet with a soft keyboard and a kickstand. Yep, even the traditionalist software manufacturer is venturing into hardware. How times are a-changing. <\/P>

Now Pioneer computers are giving a new form factor a go, and they’re marketing department has coined the series the ‘DreamBook.’ <\/P>

The DreamBook satisfies all of the criteria needed to be an Ultrabook, but with a detachable ten-point touch screen that can operate independently as a tablet. <\/P>
<\/TD><\/TR><\/TBODY><\/TABLE>

Aside from the detachable screen, it still offers the same cocktail you’d get from a cutting edge Ultrabook. It features Intel’s latest Ivy Bridge processors, Intel HD 4000 graphics, Up to 8GB of DDR3 RAM and SATA3 storage ranging from 32GB to 128GB. <\/P>

Connectivity is just as well equipped, with the DreamBook including a USB 3.0 port, MicroSD card reader and Bluetooth 4.0. <\/P>

The tablet component features a 1.3MP front facing camera and a 2MP rear camera capable of 720p video recording. NFC and a finger print reader are also optional extras. <\/P>

 <\/DIV>

A bare-boned DreamBook will set you back $1,199, but almost everything is an optional extra, including the introductory Windows 7 OS which is priced at $99. <\/P>

A DreamBook with a 2.6GHz i5 processor, 4GB of RAM, 64GB of SSD memory, the optional Bluetooth module, front and rear camera, and Windows 7 Home Premium totals to $1,564. <\/P>

At that price, Pioneer’s DreamBook is one whacky device.
