My Graduation Gift is the Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime. I have no keyboard but this tablet is the best. This vs. the iPad 3, iPad does not have flash, quad core, LED Flash, etc. 32GB is also great for the price unlike the iPad. Has expandable storage too + USB.
It's also very sexy and thin.

Transformer prime and keyboard

Posted: Mar 12, 2012, 5:45 PM

Phone owned for less than 3 months

I just bought an Asus 32gb transformer prime with the keyboard dock in january and it has some bad pixels on it. When I called the company to see if they can fix it, they said the cost would totally be on me because customers cause the damage to the screen. They haven't seen the screen or any pictures of the screen and yet they already said they aren't responsible for the screen and that screen issues are up to the customer to pay and fix. I will never support this company by purchasing thier products again as this with the keyboard was over $600 and they will not support it at all after only 2 months.
I love everything about this tablet except that ASUS will not support it. they wouldn't even guestimate as to the cost to fix the screen, they said I would have to pay to send it to them and return postage back to me and they would then tell me the cost to fix the screen.
