the technology was before it's time. they wouldn't have made any money on it if they sold it as a consumer-based product. that's why they sold it to casinos, hotels, and other businesses instead.

as for the asus transformer, it's a bit too thick for me with the keyboard attached. with the pace at whcih technology is growing, I expect asus to come out with a a thinner and more battery efficient model next year. i'll wait till next year to see what they have.
