Sony took the hybrid trend a step further still at IFA with its Tap 20 offering, a huge slab of a tablet that appears to be some sort of tech answer to the coffee table book.

The 20-inch display screen weighs a hefty 5.25kg. It comes with a battery and has a kickstand if you prefer to prop it up rather than lug it around like a tablet from table to over-sized table.

Powered by Windows 8, this beast has 10 connectivity points, 4GB of memory and a 1TB hard drive.

It appears that Sony are planning to pitch this device at families, but IFA attendees have reported that the Tap 20 would fit snugly onto workstations in the office and prove a useful collaborative tool in meetings.
