why does it sound like you either have an ipad or other android tablet instead of the transformer? cos if you actually read reviews all over the world, you'd see that everyone is raving about this device until there's shortages everywhere especially the keyboard dock bundle. The keyboard dock is different than any other for the following reasons:
1) Transformer keyboard dock VS apple IPAD / IPAD 2's keyboard dock accessory : Transformer's dock allows you to dock the tablet directly with the dock in LANDSCAPE mode unlike IPAD / IPAD 2's (you're docking it wrong concept) which docks the device in PORTRAIT mode..i mean come on, if you want to type an email, isn't it better to type in landscape mode where you have mode real estate screen space?
2) Transformer's keyboard dock has an extra battery in it claiming to increase the battery life up to 16 hours together with the tablet when both are in full charge
3) Transformer's keyboard dock has 2 USB ports and a full sized SD. Sure, there are some tablets like the acer iconia already having USB ports on the tablet itself, but if you're ok with having just a tablet with no keyboard dock, go ahead and get the iconia if it serves your purpose well.
4) Did I mention that the transformer's keyboard dock has dedicated trackpad built into it, with a single button that can differentiate between left and right click? Right click functionality behaves like the android OS back button. Also, the transformer keyboard has dedicated shortcut keys to the android OS itself such as back button, wireless toggle, bluetooth toggle, brightness setting, screenshot (YES!), browser, media player controls, volume controls, screen lock..you get the picture..if you were to be getting a normal bluetooth keyboard or standard USB keyboard, i doubt the function keys on it would be able to interact with the OS as shortcut keys for the functions i just listed. What more could you ask for??
So there you have it. I've rolled out the great features about the dock. Its really something, not your average tablet + keyboard dock combo. For the price of the keyboard dock which is RM 300 (if you buy the bundle pack tablet + keyboard dock that is), it is a lot more worth it compared to ipad's RM 229 keyboard dock that doesnt have any extra battery pack, no extra usb ports for plugging in external storage/keyboard/mice, no SD card reader..how's that for special ?
Well said 1) Transformer keyboard dock VS apple IPAD / IPAD 2's keyboard dock accessory : Transformer's dock allows you to dock the tablet directly with the dock in LANDSCAPE mode unlike IPAD / IPAD 2's (you're docking it wrong concept) which docks the device in PORTRAIT mode..i mean come on, if you want to type an email, isn't it better to type in landscape mode where you have mode real estate screen space?

still virgin
it will be easier after more plugging in/out.. i like the usb port cover, it got some sort of magnet feel, make it so easy to close the port properly
