Well this looks awesome!.. Asus Eee Transformer Tablet

It appears that they will have something called Polaris Office added. Can someone confirm whether ASUS have stuck their own interface on top of Honeycomb?

From what i have seen Asus have just installed a few apps on top of stock Honeycomb. No skinning i believe.

This looks so effin' good. It's exactly how a tablet with attachable keyboard should be, not like the iPads laughable afterthought. The perfect travel companion it seems.

Temped to sell my ipad1 and netbook and look at one of these to replace it, very nice looking and android is my preferred OS

Anyone know if it would run Win 7/dual boot?

It’s only Android. I believe Lenovo and Viewsonic do dual booting.

I'm willing to bet most shops will say "Whats that?"

Personally the eee pad Slider looks more like the kind of thing I'd want:

Eee Pad slider looks good too. Also, did everyone see the 7inch tablet Acer are releasing for only 300GBP, finally some cheap but good tablets!

Yep.. I'd be tempted to pop down a retail park on the 6th, and buy one on a whim, just because it looks to me worth the 'iPad' esque money, but the hassle and blank looks you usually get from staff is pretty much a certain.

Good for the price but you are certainly getting £80 worth of less spec with it compared with the Transformer.

Yes, but they should get jobs that suit them better, like flipping burgers!

Numptys are far over qualified for flipping burgers
