Asus Transformer Pad Infinity TF700: Infinite potential, limited OS

It is no secret that there is at least one Asus Transformer in the house and Nnjalane Podcast Co-Host Darren has three of the little buggers floating around his home.  Considering that I had recently bought the Asus Slate I didn't think getting an additional Transformer was all that necessary. 

Turns out I was wrong.  Slate style tablets work great as a laptop replacement but the limited battery life is a real downer when surfing the web or chatting with people online.  The solution to this would be an entertainment tablet like the new Transformer Pad Infinity TF700.  Tegra 3 provides the multimedia power and the keyboard is a nice option for those looking to actually work on their android device.

The Asus Transformer Pad Infinity TF700 is the Transformer Prime as it should have been. A Gandalf the White to the Prime's Saruman. Asus has clearly listened to the grievances -- most notably, GPS issues -- of some Prime owners and in most cases, addresses said grievances and then some.

The TF700 is more than just an upgrade to the Prime. It's also a chance to represent the full potential of the Transformer line. Check out the full review to see if Asus succeeds (despite the Android market's relatively paltry support for high-resolution screens and the Tegra 3 processor). 

Sign me up!  It is too bad the new device is difficult to find in the US, hopefully things will get better in the next couple weeks.
