ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Overview
The ASUS Eee Pad Transformer was first announced at CES 2011 and later released in the Spring. The tablet features an NVIDIA dual-core Tegra 2 chipset, a 10.1-inch screen and Android Honeycomb. The Transformer, as its name implies, has the ability to transform into a psuedo-laptop with an optional keyboard dock.
With an inviting price and specs that go head to head with others among the Honeycomb bunch, the Transformer has quickly become a popular option for those seeking the latest in Android tablet tech.

ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Reviews
Android Central "Honeycomb finds itself on a double threat: Thin, light Android tablet doubles as a capable Android laptop. "
Tech Radar "This is especially true with Android 3.0 products, because the vast majority of them are all packing near identical innards – namely Nvidia's Tegra 2 dual core CPU platform."
Trusted Reviews "The Asus Eee Pad Transformer is what we've been waiting for - a tablet that can truly replace a netbook or ultra-portable laptop."
PCWorld "The Transformer stands well on its own, but it's notable when paired with Asus's terrific optional keyboard dock, which adds an SD Card slot, USB port, touchpad, and extra battery."
PCMag "The Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF101 distinguishes itself from the sea of emerging Honeycomb tablets with its aggressive pricing, and an optional accessory that turns it into a virtual notebook."
Laptop Mag "A convenient keyboard dock, sleek design, and aggressively low price make the Eee Pad Transformer our favorite Wi-Fi-only Honeycomb tablet."
ZDNet "We are impressed with this Android 3.0 tablet/notebook hybrid, which works well in both modes."
