imho outside of apple the designs from samsung and asus are great looking and with heavy specs (for nb & tablets).
acer designs tend to be abit blocky. benq design tend to look like toy. msi is copy cat. hp/compaq only expensive units have great price. ibm/lenovo very unker.

i agree with Benny, always tethering my 3G for my wife's Desire when we are out. She doesn't need to get a data line - save money. If i buy a Prime, definitely will do the same. My phone will be 24/7 with me anywhere. Turning on the tethering take only few seconds. QUOTE(pcboy @ Nov 15 2011, 04:23 PM) Are you guys still aiming for Prime or already jump ship to the latest rumors of Lenovo 1.6ghz Tegra 3? if and only if it come in Thinkpad Tablet form factor with the Stylus Pen. Else, the Prime with keyboard dock is more attractive.

Read that the UK launch price is set on 499 UK Pounds for the 32gb version. Quite expensive if you'd ask me. Will Asus launch it for a better price over here in Malaysia?

Well your sources are right, as in the US it will launch for the same amount in USD...so €499, 499 Pound and $499....
Europeans are always complaining about this; as it clearly is much more expensive in the UK and Europe compared to the rest of the world..
Anyway, didn't the first TF launch for below RM2000? That would be a decent price for the TF2...
