Coming up with original gadget names is tough work, and, after all, imitation is the most sincere form of flattery -- right? So it was no surprise when ASUS happened upon an alias that more than slightly resembled that of a popular fictional mutant semi -- you know, Transformer Optimus Prime. However shockingly, Hasbro wasn't a fan, opting to battle ASUS to the death in the U.S. court system. And, after countless weeks ...

Eee Pad Transformer Prime gets handled, fawned over

We've seen the Eee Pad Transformer Prime work out its camera, take a bite out of Ice Cream Sandwich and slide through a Portuguese hands-on, but we're more than happy to take a peek at Ritchie's Room's "first look" as well.

ASUS Eee Tablet to show up at CES 2011

It was unveiled at Computex in June, and there hasn’t been much on it since then. We know that it has 2,450 dpi touchscreen sensitivity and quick 0.1 second page turns.
I also believe that it was supposed to come out sometime earlier, but it will probably not show up until 2011. That means it will ...
