I'm quite happy with it. The pixel density is actually slightly lower than on my wvga phone, circa 2009, at 225ppi vs 260ppi, but that doesn't bother me for a couple of reasons. One, higher isn't better ad infinitum, the benefit plateaus at a point. The Nook Tablet's 160ish ppi was uncomfortable for me. This is quite comfortable. Two, one tends to hold a tablet of this size at a different distance than a phone of that size, even Apple's overkill retina 'formula' takes that into account. If you really want to see a pixel, you can push it up to your eye and see one, but at normal viewing distance, I see only crisp text.
@VP, when I got to some transformer forums, it seemed like everyone (Actual owners) was ragging on Asus something fierce for every little thing (this is the sort of thing that cracks me up when people say Android fans are as loyal as Apple fans -- no, they are
completely different breeds). Then I notice my first issue, typing lag, and Asus has a firmware update fixing it a couple of days later. Color me impressed. Thank goodness there is no carrier filter for updates to go through too.
