The highly anticipated android tablet will finally be available in North America at various well known retailers including Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart. This sweet tablet runs for only $399 and the optional keyboard dock runs for $149.(see Eee Pad Transformer North American Launch News for details)
Why is this tablet a big deal and what is this tablet different from any other android tablets out there?
This is the cheapest android tablet out there that sport the latest android software, the tegra 2 processor, and an IPS screen with resolution that is same if not better than its competitors. Combined with the dock, the combination can get very good battery life, ~15 hours, and weights only about 2.9lbs total.

As you can see, the Asus Eee pad has a very competitive pricing compared its rivals and I am glad to see this as it will create pressure on the cost of tablets in the future. I believe that netbook/tablet transformer platform will dominate the market in term of mobile gadges in the near future.
