Great review as always shahz! laugh.gif

It's kind of a good thing that Asus Malaysia is trying to get approval to sell the keyboard dock to the top 150 for RM300 rather than the standard retail price. They already mucked up so badly with the countdown hype and pre-order so this way, small as it may be, seems reasonable enough. At least it would give me justification to stand in line for my Transformer.

Yeah, at first I can't really believe it.

And I did notice it doesn't have 3G right now hmm.gif

Why not? In the US, it sells for 100 USD cheaper than the iPad2 16GB. Apparently 3G model for the Transformer is coming soon.

Its tagline Phone or Pad finally makes sense now. hmm.gif

I managed to convince 1 aunty to get a Transformer just now. She was about to go to Machines to get an iPad2 but was intrigued by the Transformer when the demo unit was passing down the line. laugh.gif

EEEPad 121 is rumoured to be a Core i5 Win7 tablet but its no where to be seen. This one though wont even run any sort of Windows unless MS released a version for ARM.

It's not coming to Malaysia. No market for it apparently.
