IIRC, my bro-in-law is getting that one. I'll check with him after he's "kicked the tires".

The docking keyboard is pretty slick and helps form a ultrabook type setup if you leave it connected. Battery life is good. I am still in infancy stages of full testing -- have not tried remote desktop yet or any complex games. Flixster app allowed me to download my ultraviolet collection. Everything ran smoothly; streaming from youtube was pretty good. Hope this helps. -- Matt Cross mailto:mrforkl...@gmail.com<mailto:mrforkl...@gmail.com> On Fri, Feb 3, 2012 at 10:20 AM, Erik Goldoff <egold...@gmail.com<mailto:egold...@gmail.com>> wrote: OT but related, anyone get their hands on an ASUS Prime tablet yet ?

I keep it because it has a ginormous screen. So in terms of durability, I have no complaints. I also have a Lenovo netbook that I love. It's small, light, has good battery life, and performs well. Lenovo tends to be pretty innovative, despite having some boring-looking models. So, I wouldn't rule them out without exploring their product line fully. When I travel, I often take both. I leave the Asus in my hotel room, and carry the Lenovo into meetings. This gives me the best of both worlds. But this fall, I hope to finally trade both for a new unit that has a big screen but is also light and has all-day battery life. I'm thinking Ivy Bridge + Windows 8 will make for some great options.

We currently use Dell or Lenovo laptops. Some of the ASUS models look very light, which would be good for our nomadic staff. Just wondering on long term durability, ability to image.
