Nah, no harm done.
It's no biggie.

But people at ASUS Malaysia must give a reasonable price for TP.
Or else I will complain like the customers at ASUS sg. biggrin.gif

Maybe I didn't explain well and what makes you think I hate TP.I just compare the price vs the need of one of the user meeninme post.
1. Compare to readable outdoor , yeh other product is cheaper and works better - GTab 10.1
2. Quad-core gaming when mention about xbox thing - A must to buy an extra keyboard which worth of RM 500 to plugin to the USB port
3. Tablet to Netbook hybrid is a great but compare to the keyboard price RM 500 is a bit expensive.Maybe getting this is better ? http://www.phonearena.com/news/Motorola-Wi...ands-on_id25096
4. ICS is an upgrade - software part . If you really need ICS , can go for custom rom.

I mention , I never hate any TP product  doh.gif , I just compare only.
Micro HDMI even TF101 also have smile.gif
Yeh , 6hrs battery life in keyboard dock is good , advantage , no other product have it.
first ever tablet to sports Tegra 3 but pricey only

If the price = TF101 , why not buying ? + GPS fix

that moto keyboard is HUGE, and fugly, and also expensive (RM300+ converted directly), it's trackpad is almost useless, and it doesn't provide extra battery. i prefer the TP keyboard dock, just because of the extra battery although it's not wireless. and it looks way nicer.

i really do hope ASUS can fix the GPS issue, but the way things are going, they might not be bothered. I agree they should really bring down the price to justify the useless GPS function.

there aren't any other tablets in the market that has almost all the things i want like the TP, the keyboard dock for me is VERY important because of typing Linux commands and also the extra juice it provides. although there are some wireless keyboards that can be used with tablets, they are quite big in size and uses the tablet's battery because of Bluetooth, and i hate to carry two different devices all the time (the TP and keyboard dock is considered as one device because.......it's a Transformer thumbup.gif )

Is there any place where I could pre-order this tablet in Malaysia?

So far, no news yet even from Mr.Asus....

Nope. Two days ago Asus Malaysia posted a 2nd 'teaser' in their FB page. So far no dates, but they did get less cryptic by saying they would launch it in January. Good thing is that it hopefully comes preloaded with ICS. Other good things is that it is hopefully a batch with better TP's, without the main issues others experience...

this isn't such a good news, the good news (if it will ever happen) is that ASUS fix the GPS hardware issue. We all know that 3g version will come eventually, but most of us won't be bothered by it because we have wifi hotspot on our phones.

Well, the good news is that those that do want to wait for the 3G will give WIFI only peeps more chances of having it faster smile.gif. If I could now choose between WIFI or 3G with not that much price difference, I'd go for 3G. Since I don't want to wait another month (and...probably 5 months to get it here in Msia) I will not bother and go for the WIFI.

since you comparing those, then maybe i can add my 'opinion' too

1. kindle fire can do outdoor reading for me
2. gaming with psp
3. get cheaper acer netbook rather than tablet
4. get HP touchpad and load it with custom ICS firmware..

so how about that? doh.gif shakehead.gif
