Most looking for a great deal on an ASUS-manufactured Android slate will turn to the Nexus 7, but if you act within the next 14 hours you can upgrade your act without spending much more than you would for the Google-branded device. As Tech.Woot’s deal of the day, the ASUS Transformer Pad TF300 can be yours for as low as $249.99 for the 16GB model. The 32GB model isn’t much pricier at $279.99.
Woot was also offering a combo deal that included that ASUS keyboard dock, but it appears as though the option is now sold out. What you get is a refurbished version of the quad-core Tegra 3-powered tablet with a 10.1-inch display, 8MP camera, and ability to combine with the previously mentioned docking station for a more laptop-esque experience. The Transformer Pad ships with Android 4.0 out of the box, but a Jelly Bean update has been made available.
Act quick if you’re looking to snag the spiritual big brother to the Nexus 7 for a very similar price. I’m sure more than a few Android fans wouldn’t mind seeing this bad boy as a gift under the Christmas tree, either.

That’s a pretty good deal actually… thx for the tip
great deal but my nexus 10 is going to be at my door step today:)
Woot always sells refurbished junk, useless.
waiting for samsung chromebook to get back in stock!
Nothing wrong with refurbished stuff. I’ve bought quite a few refurbed electronics, and they have never given me a problem or looked anything other than brand new. Refurbished just means it’s already had the problems fixed, so you get it with the same warranty as new fit a lower price.
I got a 90 day warranty on my TF300 from W00t. I got it from them for $300 with the keyboard dock back before Thanksgiving. I didn’t have much of a chance to play with it because I had to wrap it and put it under the tree for the wife. It had some moderately bad backlight bleed through on one section of the display though, so I’m considering having it replaced under warranty for that.
This is a deal? Refurbished 16gb for $250, I bought a new 16gb tf300 for $230 about 6 months ago.
where?
How is this compared to the nexus 10? Im debating on keeping my nexus 10 or switching this this one?
nexus 10 a thousand times over …. dont ever switch if you have a nexus 10 (until the next nexus)
