Deke Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Does anybody know where in Bangkok I can physically put my hands on one of these before I buy it? I like the specs but a quick stroll around Fortune Town the other day only uncovered the usual Apple and Samsung tablets (plus a few no-name cheapies). Also, if anybody knows, can you get a leather cover for the tablet part of these things like they make for Ipads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BKS22 Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I have been following the Transformer Prime blogs for awhile now. At this time I am unaware of Asus even a specifying a release date for said TF700T. With the TF300T out now kicking butt in the tablet market, the next tablet I believe you will see from Asus is the Prime Infinity which is essentially the 300T with higher end resolution screen, metal casing (with previous WiFi issues resolved), and a couple extra ports. You should be able to find the 300T around and give it a test drive in the store. ICS is so silky smooth and the screen resolution looks very nice! If you're in the market for a nice Android tablet you'll be hard pressed to find something as complete and solid as the 300T right now. I wouldn't hold my breath for the 700T....anyways if and when it does come out, news about its replacement will already be on its heels. Gotta pull the trigger at some point! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deke Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 I saw the 700T advertised on the Invade IT website as being available which I why I was wanting to check it out. Maybe I need to call them to confirm that their ad isn't an error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess now I need to decide whether to wait or get something else. While you're waiting, try one of those B2000 "No Name" Chinese Android tablets. Many are running ICS and have surprisingly decent specs. Screens are ok and the 7" ones are so compact and light that they comfortably ride in the cargo pocket of your shorts. I bought a "MID" brand for my gf's niece and it has held up very well and so far, has run every app put in. Even if you do later get the Asus, I think you will find this to be a great back-up and a lot of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kered Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I have just purchased a TF300 in Chiang Mai and first impression is great. Contrary to all reviews and specs. that I have viewed it does have 3G capability with a sim card slot and with 32GB costs Baht 19,900. Only minor irritation is that the limited documentation supplied with it is only in Thai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kered Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Thanks DDDave I have already done that, all 90 pages which are well presented. This is my first ASUS product and so far I am very impressed. I looked at the new Samsung Tab 2 with docking keyboard but at approx. the same price there is no comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Langsuan Man Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 http://www.anandtech...y-tf700t-review Although official reviews of the Infinity hit today, availability isn't scheduled until around July 16th. Quantities are unknown at this point and will likely be gated by panel availability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
