The Modbook Explained

Built for mobile users, artists, students and professionals, the Axiotron Modbook enables its user to draw and write directly on the screen. The Axiotron Modbook comes standard with a built-in camera, an integrated DVD burner and a (optional) built-in Global Positioning System (GPS).

Lightweight and Scratch-Resistant Coating
Axiotron's QuadCoat™ process — adapted from auto industry techniques — helps protect the Modbook's sturdy-yet-lightweight magnesium top shell while lowering the Modbook's weight. With the new liquid metallic coating process and other changes the weight of the highly portable Modbook decreases to 5.3 pounds.

Enhanced Functionality
• Improved display characteristics and drawing surface:
Axiotron's new proprietary bonding process decreases the gap between the AnyView™ LCD panel and ForceGlass™ screen cover. Result: better contrast ratio (especially outdoors), firmer drawing surface and reduced pen-to-cursor parallax.

• Better pen tablet performance:
Specially designed internal Mu-metal® shielding, in addition to existing shielding, boosts pen tablet responsiveness by greatly decreasing the potential for interference from electronic noise sources.

New Pre-Installed Software
Autodesk® SketchBook® Express 2009, an industry leading sketching and drawing application, is now exclusively available on the Modbook as part of its standard software package. Axiotron plans additional software enhancements for all Modbook users in early 2009.

Modkits are now starting at $499
