Asus Eee Pad Tansformer

The Asus Eee Pad Transformer, a Google Android Honeycomb tablet which has the reference sized 10.1-inch screen with 1280 x 800 resolution, dual core 1GHz NVIDIA Tegra 2 AP20H processor and 1GB of RAM. These are the same specifications you will find on Acer's Iconia A500 and Motorola's Xoom tablets. What distinguishes the Asus Eee Pad Transformer is that it has a removable dock which when attached effectively converts the tablet into a laptop. 

The model released here has 16GB of internal storage. A microSD slot will allow you to add up to a 32GB microSD Card. The tablet also has a USB 2.0 port.

The Asus Eee Pad Transformer is priced at Php22,995, and Php29,996 with the dock, which is a bit higher than we expected. Internationally, the Asus Eee Pad Transformer is priced at US$399, and the dock at US$149. This should make the Asus Eee Pad Transformer about Php4,000 cheaper than Apple's iPad 2 which is priced at US$499. Aty the current pricing it is just Php1,000 cheaper than the Apple iPad 2. Despite the higher than expected price, it is good choice since the dock really expands the functionality of this tablet.
