Hey guys, So i am asking this on behalf of a friend of mine. He is looking to buy a tablet. He will be using it for browsing, mails, surfing etc. However he is looking for one which supports external keyboard as he often has to write a lot of mails a day and prefers typing on keyboard than on the screen. Could you guys please help.

+1, for the ASUS T100TA.
As pointed out by [MENTION=145143]SaiyanGoku[/MENTION],the 500GB HDD in the dock is a boon for users.

Hey..Apologies for the late reply..Thanks for the suggestion guys.Wanted to ask how are all these suggestions comparable to dell 3000 series.

*www.dell.com/in/p/inspiron-11-3147-laptop/pd

Which one would you guys recommend then..Any reason why dell one is more expensive?

@op, you want a tablet or a netbook? :confused:

Dell isn't expensive, its overpriced. That doesn't deserves a 35k price tag, maybe 25k at max. There are way better configs at 35k than that POS Dell laptop.

A very good device undoubtedly,but it acts as a Tablet form,because the components cant be separated.
Whereas in case of ASUS T100TA, Notion Ink Cain 2-in-1,IBall Slide WQ149,Swipe Ultimate Tablets the desired functioning is present what @OP wants.

Ohh! I see OP has not mentioned about his Friend's intention of wanting a separate Tablet and Keyboard component.
In that case Lenovo is the superior amongst these models.
