Asus got international warranty. Not very sure though.

You need US address. Or use those forwarding services to order.

Not sure how to help you. I just wait for half year see whether it's officially here. If it isn't, then buy AP set I believe it will be cheap by that time. If you're not rushing, why don't wait for 1 month or so, wait forumers bring them in in large quantity.

Actually... It can support mass storage but maybe not all 2.5" harddisk. 3.5" powered harddisk shouldn't be a problem. The main problem here is the power supply. USB harddisk is meant to function at 5V while tablet/phone batteries is normally 3.7V with a max voltage of 4.2V. You can't expect it to perform like a USB port on our laptop/PC. The current output is also much much lower. If you get what I mean

Don't you think 10.1 is too big? Use it to play game? Train muscle??

Ok... Real man Real man.
You try take Asus Padfone to play. 850g for phone+tablet station.

Better wait and get from forumer here. Else if you're going to buy on your own, it will be:
199USD+15USD: Tablet+Shipping to US Address
66USD : USPS Priority Shipping+Insurance
Which make it
280USD~RM900

If you're a bit earlier, you might join the bulk and get it at around 800 shipped to your doorstep. I din join though. Going to wait half year

Do I say that? I said wait for the price drop. Take Galaxy Nex as example. The price at launch is 2.2k. Price half year later 1.4k. 7months later 1.2k. I don't have any discrete news here. Just personal thought Anyway, I still got Galaxy Nexus which is considered quite huge.

But apple is bad that they're targeting Google.
First, banned GTab 10.1 then Nexus. Now they're going to produce mini ipad (rumour). 7~8"

868 is seriously not too much. Because it's not available in Malaysia yet. Now only in US. Even if you preorder directly from google, google charges you USD 15 delivery to US address. Then you need to use forwarding service that helps you forward your parcel from US Address to Malaysia, it will be a fee for their commission and another 66USD for postage from US to Malaysia. That means at least 199+15+66+i think 10 or 20 commision for them. Means it became around 290USD~300USD = RM930~960.

If they do so, they'll probably charge you another 500 extra

I mean 500 for camera+3G
Anyway, I can understand the need for 3G but not really the need for Camera. It's good to have it but when it comes to budget constraint, I would think camera is not needed. Using a phone to take picture will gives better image due to stability. It's harder to keep your hand stable with a tablet compared to a phone.

Not just iPad. Galaxy Tab +3G also another 300~400. Of course the actual cost is a lot lesser than 300 perhaps not even 100 but that's how they earn.
Maybe a mifi can be used as replacement but inconvenient to charge two devices. Unless you turn the MiFi on only when you need it. Always on then the mifi dies before tab dies.

EDIT: I forgot that Adding 3G in a Tab = More Tax!!!!

I think Uncle Benny means tax if he's helping others to bring back.

Will they tax the unit on your hand?

Pawned by a box.
But it also shows that how tight it is. Safer perhaps

No one selling. Only preorder or bulk. US/UK there haven't seriously start selling too. Preorder from Google just shipped within these few days.

No. It can open up but not the usual way like opening up Galaxy Nexus/Samsung phones back cover/any phones with removable battery cover. It's assembled. Just that according to ifixit, is quite easily taken apart with some tools. Does that considered replaceable??

Asus offer International Warranty for its tablet. But this is Google + Asus so... Not sure

Hold your nexus 7 facing frontwards. Rotate your whole body. Possible.


Wow... 720p for 8hours. sounds nice!

IINM you order in Australia also shipped from SG. Sure there's N7 in SG just whether they sell it officially

Their 'Box' QC has gone way too high.

Just use your GNex charger. USB Output standard worldwide. 5V 1A GNex charger will work.
