I got an eeePad Transformer a couple of days ago. Very impressed for an Android device and amazed at how well it works in 'Netbook' mode using a keyboard and mouse.
Thanks for this semi-indepth hands on video...I'm pretty much sold on this. My laptop at home I used to use in college, now I use it mostly when I'm downstairs or away from my PC. It's too bulky to take with me and it's not aging very well. I've been looking for a netbook to replace it...this seems to me like the perfect solution for me. Damn you Asus, release this in the US already and take my money!
@nobodyshearing From what ive been hearing, this asus tablet probably better for now. The 5 is supposedly a revamped iphone 4 with different components inside including a a5 chip, the same one in the ipad 2, and etc. The release date is in september this year, rather than June, with production starting in July. The iphone 6 is supposedly the complete redesign. Dont quote me on this stuff. These rumors coming from suppliers of the iphone, but it is good to know.
@TwistedGentleman I think that Asus is probably in "holy crap, we are outselling our supply by a ton" mode. There will be plenty to go around later this spring and into the summer. This device is worth the wait. Two other people in my office and I have a pact to buy three if we can ever find them at the retail price.
@richspanky72 I think they just underestimated how popular it would be, which is a fair enough business move in this "iPad or Bust" mentality a lot of people have.
@BasKoene1 You call him a troll xD. What do HDDs have to do with SD cards? Ill forgive you for being a hypocrite and that stupid idea because I am nice...

Thanks for the review, Phil
Now the challenge is finding one in stores. Sold out too fast for me to react to.
Nice bit of kit well done ASUS
Now that is a tablet that I might actually look at getting.

my neck hurts...had my head tilted when you were showing the keyboard
Hey, your in pensacola as well
@darkruler527 it is easier to have it built in if you need more space. Sd is slower and not as convenient.
Which build quality is better? Xoom or Asus?
I'm looking for the one that feels more robust
@nobodyshearing iPhone 5, tablet does not have much use unless you travel a lot or if you want one.
That looks soooooo sweet!
Good price and great tablet I'm probably getting this over the xoom
@BasKoene1 Tsss Fandroid...
Not everyone wants to carry around an external HDD.
so should i get a 32 GB version with keyboard, or should i get the iphone 5 when it comes out?
can you please show us fring video chat ?? the are so many reviews out there but nobody shows us the front cam in real action ;-((( thank you!
Has it a GPS chip build in?
Google Maps works on that chip or WiFi,3G?
This looks amazing
Thumbs up for the design
I may just get myself a job to get one of these lil puppies!
I've gotta get me one of those!!
Does applanet apps support for tis device???!!!!

Why does the video seem fake? I have to mute it to be able to watch it
Anybody notice the Apple logo at the bottom right in the video he plays? WTF.
@BasKoene1 U sensitive bro?
Awesome..

@BasKoene1 Cool story bro.
@BasKoene1 No, I think thats ur mom telling you to get off the computer.
If there was time for an impulse buy, it would be now... Need more money.
