Dunder Mifflin’s Pyramid tablet is weird, awesome

Let’s face it – most modern tablets are pretty similar. Basically it comes to selecting the iPad or some Android device, in which case (if you go for an Android-based tablet), it’s about choosing the brand you trust the most.

No more, thanks to the company called Dunder Mifflin, which just launched “The Pyramid,” a triangle-shaped tablet. According to the company, with such a product users are able to “unleash the power of the pyramid,” whatever that means.

We don’t have all the specs, but we do know few things. For instance, The Pyramid weighs 3 lbs, while its memory packs 50L of memory. Again, we’ve no idea what “50L” means.

However, we do love innovative form factors, though honestly I have hard time imagining the use case for The Pyramid. I’m sure the company will pitch its product as more than just a novelty, cramming some custom UI that makes some things easier to accomplish, but for the majority of users it’s the square-shaped tablets that will work much better… or so I think. What do you say?
