And how many developers are going to bother to make a keyboard for the Asus when Asus already has their own? Sure any Bluetooth one will work, but wouldn't you prefer one that was actually made specifically (meaning it's sized and styled to match your Transformer) for it?

You can also use any BT keyboard with the iPad as well. Despite this, only a small number of people actually get keyboards for their iPads. This is because they bought the iPad for consumption, not creation, and the on-screen keyboard works well enough for the amount they use it.

Didn't you learn your lesson the last time you used that argument? Sure Apple branded accessories (like cables/adaptors) are expensive, but so are ones sold by every manufacturer. Complaining about Apple charging $30 for a cable is pointless when a dozen companies make compatible ones for $5 (or less).

And the fact still remains that with an iPad 2 you will have a choice of countless accessories made by numerous manufacturers. You won't see that for any other tablet until after they've been successful and have significant sales numbers. No company is going to want to spend money tooling up for production of an item without first having a market to sell to.



Oh, and I see no responses on my comment about the iPad 2 killing the Transformer in graphics performance.
