Yes, no question.
Love the keyboard add-on too.

I really wish they would be smart about the price and go lower than $499.99 though.

seriously considering it. had an ipad2 but sold it once the et4g came out. the transformer prime looks RIDICULOUS

I love my transformer 1 but the prime is everything I wished the TF1 was

especially than it's thinner and lighter than the ipad 2, thinner but just a hair heavier than the galaxy tab 10.1. I most likely wont be able to get it for myself until january. Then I plan on buying the tablet first, selling my tf 1 and dock, then buying the dock

It does have nice specs, and it's thin and all that, but I have some reservations. First, it's expensive, especially if you get the keyboard. The quad-core(actually 5 core) Tegra chip sounds good, but until apps are written to specifically take advantage of it, the speed increase won't be as great as it could be. I would have preferred a screen with better than 1280x800, and lived with a dual-core processor.

I won't buy until it has a USB port ON THE TABLET. Bummer because it's close to perfect otherwise.

Better resolution would have been nice.

I'll wait for Samsung to release their next tablet before ever going with an Asus tablet again. I went through 4 TFs before giving up and jumping to the GT10.1. Haven't looked back since. The TF had one of the worst build quality I have seen on an electronic device.
