Sides, used to buy laptops every year (for some reason, my older laptops tended to break down just 2 months after warranty expires ). My ASUS laptop is still going strong so why not spend the money on an ASUS tablet? Alas, I reckon that will change if we ever buy a house and I need to start paying mortgage and property taxes. |

Nice review here.
$379 is for the 16GB model, $399 for the 32GB. Nice to see a manufacturer charging something reasonable for jumping from 16 to 32 GB for a change. |

Yep. I do wonder how many will get the 16GB model given the $20 difference. If I had been in the market for a budget 10" tablet, the 32GB would still be a no-brainer. Yeah, you can easily add an extra 16GB microSD for $10 (32GB total) or 32GB microSD for $20 (48GB total), but for a very minimal price increase, it's nicer to already have it built-in. Do hope these new Transformers support 64GB microSDXC cards.

Think they will come out with something similar to Retina display?
I have the original, and think it is perfect for my needs, but I wouldn't nix an enhanced screen. I'm thinking 1080 movies. |

Probably no apps that will make use of that megaresolution, right?
Wonder if Kindle app will be as easy to read as on Kindle. |

It will probably take a while though.
I like ConvertPad, but it looks awful on my Transformer. |
