                I have the Asus...I enjoy it, does everything I need.


                The new Asus Transformer is either coming out soon or out now, with the new Operating System which is supposed to be pretty nice.

                  Blackberry playbook also had a price drop. Get em before RIM goes out of business!

                    Don't buy anything that doesn't have android 3.0 on it.. Blackberry and apple both can't run what u want.. Flash rules the earth!

                          Best Buy has the Asus Transformer for $249.99 on Black Friday. Best deal IMO.

                                What do you think is cheaper, Cyber Mon. or waiting until after Christmas? I need a new Ipod.

                                        don't bother.
                                        Everyone that I know that has bought one, stopped using after a month or two.

                                                I used to buy the tablets, back in 1990-2000. I just buy 112 grams of MDMA and play how I want.

                                                  Yep...I hardly use it around the house anymore, since I have laptops in my bedroom (for jerking) and down stairs (for sports).

                                                  But it is nice, when you go on a flight to pull that thing out instead of lugging around a laptop. Read Books, watch shows, does all you need. That 499 pricetag is a little steep it seems, I have the 16GB asus and it was 299. I would not spend 499 for a tablet, but the new one should be the best one out there.

                                                    Maybe the SBR Store should get the $199 Blackberry Playbook's

                                                    Not a fan of RIM but have it for like 3000 points.

                                                        I have the Asus Transformer (not the latest one obviously) and I like it for the most part. I was able to watch stuff on Jtv when my internet connection wasn't shitting the bed. The touch screen isn't all that great compared to an Ipad and it lagged out sometimes so if you can spend the money I would wait for that Transformer Prime. Specs sounds like the .

                                                              I used to make a killing selling these things 1988-1994. Used to get a sheet of 100 for $70 and sell them for 5 dollars a pop. After I finished bagging up, I would lick my wet fingers. I would be trippin for 12 hours
