Asus officially re-announces TF700 & 300

I looked around and didn't find any posts here on this yet. I snagged this from engadget.com via Pulse. I like the Gorilla glass 2 plus the qualcomm 8960.

ASUS rebrands its tablets 'Transformer Pads,' announces the high-end Infinity Series with either Tegra 3 or Snapdragon's S4 chip FEBRUARY 27, 2012 BY DANA WOLLMAN : ENGADGET

Yes, another one. Less than four months

after announcing the original T201

Transformer Prime and slightly modified

TF700T, ASUS is adding uno más to the

collection. And don't be fooled by the

name: though the company is rebranding

its tablet line "Transformer Pads," the

newly announced Infinity Series looks a

lot like a product we've already seen.

Essentially, it's the TF700T with a dual-

core Qualcomm MSM 8960 Snapdragon

S4 CPU and an optional LTE radio. Now,

before you gasp that ASUS has ditched

NVIDIA, hear this: there will still be a

Tegra 3 option, but that's just the WiFi-

only version; the 3G / 4G versions will

pack the S4 chip.

Additionally, there will be a lower-end

16GB option (the TF700T was only

available in 32GB and 64GB flavors).

Otherwise, the specs are the same,

including a quad-core Tegra 3 SoC, dual

8MP / 2MP cameras, 1GB of RAM, HDMI

and a 10.1-inch, 1920 x 1200, Super IPS+

Gorilla Glass display. This time around, it

has Gorilla Glass 2, but that's a mild spec

bump indeed.

Unlike the original Prime, which shipped

with Honeycomb but updated to Ice

Cream Sandwich shortly after going on

sale, the Infinity Pad will run Android 4.0

out of the box. It also comes with 8GB of

free lifetime ASUS WebStorage and is

rated for 10 hours of battery life (16 with

that signature keyboard dock, sold

separately). No word yet on pricing or

availability. In any case, though, we

wouldn't be surprised if ASUS gave birth

to another tablet between now and then.

I read that Gorilla Glass 2 can be 20% thinner than Plain Old Gorilla Glass.

This sucks. I traded in my laptop for the prime and because the wifi ABSOLUTELY blows I can't use the thing out in the yard. I have actually been thinking about placing an outdoor access point on the other side of the yard, but after a little experimentation it looks like I'd need to set up two of them to get full coverage. As it is I really only have usable wifi about 20' from the current access point which is mounted high on an exterior wall. For the record my Asus laptop got great wifi range. I could use it all over the yard. Oh yeah, also the GPS just plain doesn't work. I would rather have a TF101. If they don't make my Prime right I'm going to make a lot of noise. I'll start a media circus lawsuit.
