Viliv S10 Blade convertible tablet launch pushed back

Apple isn't the only company pushing back tablet launch dates. Engadget is reporting that the Viliv S10 Blade won't ship in the US until late April or early to mid-May. Retailer Dynamism had expected to begin shipping the convertible tablet/netbook on April 22nd, but apparently there's been a delay at the factory.

The Viliv S10 Blade can be used either in either tablet or netbook mode, thanks to a swivel that lets you rotate the display and fold it down over the keyboard.

The computer has a 1.6GHz Intel Atom Z530 processor, Intel GMA 500 graphics, and runs Windows 7 Home Premium. It's rather expensive for a 10 inch netbook with an Atom processor, with prices starting at $699. But there aren't a lot of 10 inch netbooks with touchscreen displays, swivels, and Windows 7 Home Premium on the market right now.
