QUOTE(baretta @ Apr 28 2011, 11:47 AM) Screen capable but apps not capable no point lor. I already try HD mOvie on both platform with mp4. Well, ipad2 much better than honeycomb. Better u google about this matter first. Remember, honeycomb just softdecode not like ipad2. I want the tablet to play most of the format without needing to convert into mp4, so much hassle. Also transferring file to eeepad seems easier One thing I like eeepad over iPad2 , eeepad has microsd reader and also optional dock with USB then can read thumbdrive. iPad 2 camera connection kit can read thumbdrive if jailbreak? |

QUOTE(basSist @ Apr 28 2011, 12:03 PM) official malaysia asus transformer coming soon but the price is not attractive at all US (the lowest spec) transformer $399 ipad2 $499 MY transformer RM1750 ipad2 RM1499 i purposely did the price comparison because the ipad2 is launching on tomorrow. that's the asus biggest competitor i can say that not in term of OS part, but the price part. this is the seller selling malaysia set http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1854176+1 this is killing one of the major selling point of this tablet  |

Yup.. Ipad 2 16gb WIFI version having very attractive price tag...
I'm very disappointed with the Asus Transformer price tag... but we haven't heard any official news from Asus Malaysia yet. I would say the RM1750 is still speculation price... If that's true... I think I will jump ship...
Acer Iconia Tab W500 with 32GB+WIFI+keyboard cost only RM1699....

damm... RM1750 seem like overpriced.
Singapore Pre-order already sold out, but the tablet comes with free docking only for SGD 699 [~RM1689]
have to wait the official launch with price revised.

If deduct the 7% - S$653 which convert to only 1,568. eyeing on this too to use as portable storage of my DSLR outing when use with a portable hdd. |

Ipad2 got many apps that support multi format, and if you jaibreak, yes connection kit can read thumbdrive, u also can tranfers file via usb without itunes, and also u can donload movie directly to ur ipad, if zip file, automatic extract . |

I think the current price of eee pad is overpriced la.. just wait the official launch in M'sia. Since in Singapore, transformer is cheaper than iPad, it should be the same in M'sia.

Jailbreak is one thing, but what they rely on is still soft decode. 1GHz Dual Core A9 just is not enough. Even on my WinTel tablet with C2D 1.3GHz, it barely play 1080P content. Neither Apple or Google has release GPU Video Acceleration API for software devs. |

QUOTE(uk15029 @ Apr 28 2011, 09:45 PM) ipad 2 or ee pad transformer?? still thinking.. Is a simple decision - just ask what you wish to do most on the tablet and you have the answer. Decide based on your NEEDS not your wants. Both has its pros and cons. Do not decide based on pricing - this is the worst criteria as pricing of both is not much difference. Pricing is only of consideration if there is a vast difference |

Why ipad2 cheap? They no need higher spec to run very smoothly for their Ios. Simple.
