The Asus Tablet
is the most understated among all the android tablets in the market. The Asus Eee Pad is here to make a statement around that “you can ignore us but can never stay away from us”. As 2011 comes to an end, I would like to state what all of us have been aware of throughout the year: Android has made every manufacturer and user crazy for it. So what should we as buyers and they as makers do to have something unique in whatever we buy or whatever they sell?

So what should we as buyers and they as makers do to have something unique in whatever we buy or whatever they sell?The Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF 101 comes with such noteworthy functionality. The first thing that catches the eyes is the detachable keyboard. So, have a pad while travelling and convert it into a notebook while at desk. Isn’t that amazing?
Built upon a dual core Nividia Tegra 2 processor and Android 3.0 honeycomb, the Asus EEE pad tablet fascinates us with its intrinsic design and that’s what we are looking for when we have so many honeycomb devices around.
We can always spend a few more dollars to get the hands on the keyboard dock for this beautiful baby.
All the specifications are quiet similar to every other android tablet but let us sum up the specifications of EEE pad in a jiffy.
Network Support | N/A |
Display | 1280 by 800 pixels touch screen |
Internal Data | 16/32 GB based on the model |
Connectivity | WiFi, Bluetooth, USB 2.0 |
Primary Camera | 5 MP |
Secondary Camera | 1.3 MP frontal camera for video chat |

The 10.1” screen is mesmerizing and can compete with your usual HD screens of laptops.
The drawbacks which I found were: unavailability of SIM Card slot (so not 2G or 3G connectivity). So you need to be wirelessly connected with data using a WiFi provider otherwise what you will have in your hand will be just a movie player or a psp.
The Asus EEE pad price details: around $500 for just a tablet and $750 for the tablet with keypad dock.
