The Transformer Book TP200 features four different usage modes – Laptop mode is ideal for serious work, tent mode makes sharing screen contents simple, and stand mode is an instant personal movie theater. In addition, there is a special FlipLock feature ensuring that the keyboard and touchpad are automatically disabled when the

screen is rotated by more than 180 degrees, and they are enabled again when the screen is flipped back to laptop mode. The always-handy tablet mode is further enhanced by the Transformer Book Flip TP200’s lightweight design and superb 8-hour battery life.
