If you're excited about [convertible tablets][3] but can't wait for the [IdeaPad Yoga][4] to arrive, then perhaps [Novero's Solana][5] might give you a temporary fix. It's a dinky [netbook][6] (yes, [netbook][7]) that runs both [Windows 7][8] and [Android][9], but you can flip the display over in its frame to turn it into a tablet PC. It's packing a dual-core 1.6GHz [Intel Atom][10] N2600, Intel GMA 3600 IGP Graphics, 2GB of RAM and a choice of 32 or 64GB of solid-state storage. Fortunately, it looks like it won't be long before we get to clench it to our chests since it's now been given the thumbs-up from the assembled experts down in the [FCC's][11] underground bunker. For around $800, you too can pretend it's 2009 all over again, just remember to bring the Flo Rida.
