so, official words from Asus is that they are doing some stringent testing on Transformer which led to the delay...
but from the various sources it still sounds more like parts shortage to me... |

They're having such a bad shortage that they can only churn out 1/3 of the total number they were supposed to produce now.

Asus scale down Transformer’s production from 30,000 units to only 10,000 units per month. http://www.lowyat.net/v2/index.php?option=...d=4347&Itemid=2 |

yeah, Motorola sort of rushed to get Xoom out... users can send it back to Motorola to be upgraded to 4G capable once ready...
anyway i ve to admit, a tablet with 3G modem is much more convenient... |
