            “The  ASUS VivoTab RT will give consumers and business customers an optimized touch  interface and live tile updates with PC capabilities,” said Chris Penrose,  senior vice president, AT&T  Emerging Devices. “With this  tablet, we’re giving customers the opportunity to connect the first Windows RT  tablet with 4G LTE connectivity, and for as low as $10 per month, with  AT&T's new Mobile Share plans. It’s portable and very affordable."
           
            “We are very excited to  work closely with AT&T to bring the first 4G LTE capable Windows RT tablet  to the North American market” said Jerry Shen, ASUS CEO. “Our goal is to drive  product innovation through our ‘Design Thinking’ philosophy and deliver an  immersive user experience. We believe the innovative ASUS VivoTab RT and mobile  dock are the best choice for consumers and business customers to connect while  on-the-go with the AT&T 4G LTE network.”
            At  just 0.33  inches thin and weighing just 1.18lbs, ASUS VivoTab™ RT is one of the lightest, thinnest  tablets available and features a stunning metallic design.  With a powerful NVIDIA® Tegra® 3 quad-core  processor and 12-core graphics, VivoTab™ RT delivers exceptional performance  with Windows apps and an immersive mobile gaming experience. ASUS VivoTab™ RT features a  high-resolution 10.1” (1366x768) Super IPS+ display that offers a remarkably  vivid and brilliant viewing experience of photos, videos and more.
           
            ASUS  VivoTab™ RT features a 2MP front camera for instant photos or HD video  conferencing with friends, or family while an 8MP rear camera with LED flash  and auto-focus takes stunning photos or 1080P HD video recording.  ASUS SonicMaster audio technology, developed with Bang & Olufsen ICEpower, produces crystal clear sound with a wide  sound stage, increased audio fidelity, and distinct vocal enhancements.
           
            ASUS VivoTab RT features an optional mobile dock  (sold separately; bundled free for a limited time) that allows for increased  productivity and longer battery life. When docked, ASUS VivoTab RT becomes an  ultra-portable device with keyboard, multi-touch touchpad and USB port, plus up  to 15 hours use with the dock’s built-in battery.

With its innovative tablet and mobile  dock design, ASUS VivoTab RT delivers an excellent combination of performance  and portability, both for work and play.
           
            AT&T customers have access to the  nation’s largest 4G network, covering 285 million people. AT&T has two 4G  networks that work together for customers, LTE and HSPA+ with enhanced  backhaul. That means AT&T customers are able to enjoy a widespread,  ultra-fast and consistent 4G experience on their compatible device as they move  in and out of LTE areas.2 With other carriers, when you travel outside of their LTE  coverage area, you may be on a much slower 3G network.
           
            Customers  purchasing Windows 8 tablets from AT&T have more options in choosing the  plan that’s right for them and their mobile devices. With new AT&T Mobile  Share plans, new and existing customers can share a single bucket of data  across smartphones, tablets, and  other compatible devices. AT&T Mobile Share allows customers to build a  plan to fit their devices and usage. For as low  as $10 per month, customers can connect the ASUS VivoTab RT 4G LTE tablet with  AT&T's new Mobile Share plans. Customers  can select one of the new shared data plans or choose one of AT&T’s  existing individual or family plans.3
