Although I strongly agree that Asus had mark up too much, but to be fair $199 in US is for 8 GB model, while the then RM999 (now RM950) in Malaysia is for 16GB.

Safe to say we're following UK prices. If it's 199 USD then it's 199 GBP. 199 GBP = RM981 which is near to our RM999 Nexus 7. Similarly here, £239 for the 8GB version and £279 for the 16GB easily translates to RM1179 & RM1376. So, we should expect RM1.2k for 8GB ver & RM1.4k for the 16GB ver once it officially launches here.
