Asus Eee Pad Tablet...and Shtuff!

Hello all, I am back!

I wanted to talk about a piece of technology in a category that I find fascinating: TABLETS!! Ok so the actual tablet is the ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Prime Tablet. Long name, best in the lineup.
The AEPTP runs the 4th version of the Android OS; Ice Cream Sandwich, or ICS. It also rocks an Nvidia Tegra 3 1.3 Ghz Quad Core processor, which considering it's a tablet, is pretty nice! It's only 0.2 Ghz below my LAPTOP processor, although my CPU is made by AMD and not Nvidia.
For excellent viewing capability, it has a 10.1 inch screen, I have no idea what type though so don't ask me. Go look it up. Please. Aaand it has a 8mp rear facing camera with a 1.3-2mp front facing cam. Not bad. ALSO you can choose between the 16GB model or the 32GB model, both running with 1GB of RAM.
And with all that geek nerd talk aside, let's go into WHY I would spend my money on such a device. And why not. First of all it looks nice...what with it's optional docking keyboard....which will cost you an extra $100 to $140....no thanks. I've got a laptop.


First of all, this AEPTP is supposedly the top ranking Android tablet on the market, and from I've seen, I'm not about to doubt it, UNTIL companies start releasing new devices of their own. I heard that Asus is releasing new models of this already, so I don't know if I should wait....

Ok no, I'm not waiting, unless not buying it until June counts...by then the new models will probably be on the market...

Sidetracked...let's move on to why NOT?

Apparently the Texas Instruments OMAP 5 Processor blew the Nvidia Tegra 3 out. Of. The.Water with a webpage rendering test. But who knows, the variables could have been inconsistent.

So all in all with my sketchy review, I would say YES I am going to buy it. Because I had hands on experience which I failed to mention. Oops.
The main reason my review is sketchy is because I want you to research it from more reliable sources. Mine might be biased. Slightly.

Anyway, have a greeeaat day you all!!!
