Asus Padfone to sport a quad-core Tegra 3 CPU, coming in early 2012

Remember the Asus Padfone? The phone that docks into a tablet and powers it? Asus did’t forget about that phone at all. As a matter of fact, they’re working on it, and they’re making it better than what we thought it was going to be. According to the guys over at Engadget and NetbookNews, Asus is planning on launching the Eee Padfone at Mobile World Congress 2012 in February. Instead of the phone/tablet being powered by Qualcomm’s Krait S4 processor, it will be powered by NVIDIA’s new quad-core Tegra 3 processor.

There’s still no word on which OS it will be running. Now that Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich is available, we’re betting that it will be the OS. After all, Ice Cream Sandwich was designed to be run on both phones and tablets, and the Padfone is both, so it makes perfect sense!
