    Default Asus Transformer

    Seriously... no one mentioned this? Strange...

    OS: Android 3.0, Honeycomb
    RAM: 1GB
    Processor: NVidia Tegra2, 2GHz

    Etc.. etc..

    Price: USD$399

    Looks like a win to me..

    Surprised it wasn't mentioned either. Now this is what a tablet is all about...

    Plus ASUS has priced it well. ASUS has sucker punched the competition with this one. Here is a review from Laptopmag.com:

    Certainly a winner...at that price hard to pass it up and the interface is neat.

    You all know that in 2011 for those who must have a keyboard there is this just released tech that has this real catchy name i think they call it Bluetooth it's truly amazing... you can connect many peripherals devices etc without a dock truly amazing they even have a wide assortment of keyboards many of which are probably shipping now. This truly is some space age hi tech stuff you can connect a keyboard without wires, 40 pin connector or a dock.

    But for real though calm down a keyboard dock? Making a tablet into a laptop that makes the tablet much thicker and less response for what $139 plus.

    Oh yeah keep in mind the $399 is for the tablet itself...the keyboard gonna push you over $500.

    But the Tablet by itself is pretty good and the price is a winner that is all.

    impressive.. its like a tablet + keyboard dock.. hmm this is innovative! but what would have really knocked me for a loop is if it had 2GB's of ram + an ethernet port for LAN Connectivity but all things in time eh? JUST A THOUGHT - this would be sooooo sick if you could load up a boot loader and drop on ubuntu on it! THINK OF IT!! that would be amazing!! anyway im loving this.. thumbs up asus

    Now this isn't fair:
    When Apple came out with the iPad1 and developed a docking station with a proprietary keyboard, no one was impressed.
    They then announced compatibility with Bluetooth keyboards, still no one took it seriously.
    All of a sudden ASUS releases this tablet and it now got your attention.

             Apple is still the best  thing since sliced bread
