And after a year, no more updates. I'm really frustrated that my TF201 isn't going to be updated to 4.2, the multiple users feature is a Godsend.<p>I don't understand why more manufacturers don't run stock Android, does it not help them upgrade more easily?
Hmmm ... the idea of using it strictly as a remote desktop sounds intriguing, but do I really need the PC base-station then?<p>I use my iPad with a blue-tooth keyboard to work on remote computers quite a bit, so this basically gives me the equivalent with more pixels. The down-side is that it won't fit into a laptop bag.<p>Edit: I work in a similar way to what's described in this article - <a href="http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/swap-your-laptop-ipad-linode" rel="nofollow">http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/swap-your-laptop-ipad-li...</a>
That's an interesting form factor for a docking station.<p>It's also the first monitor to run Android...or the first tablet to allow an external device to display on its screen.
Wow, that is a creative use of computing power. I am surprised it doesn't have a TV tuner so you can also use it as a TV.<p>Reading the Penny Arcade discussion about the Surface Pro made me wonder whether there is a niche market for a designer PC/tablet with something like Wacom pen support. Sit in front of is with CS6 and lay out something, pick up the display and lay it on the table like it would look like as a magazine cover, take a picture of a magazine cover with a rear facing camera and touch it up and back on the stand, moving back and forth. Probably wouldn't work for me but perhaps.<p>I was thinking about my notebooks and how a tablet could replace those. Something like the Galaxy note with a really killer implementation of something like Trello might do it. My note taking has never completely switched to a laptop because of the drawing requirement. Even with OmniGraffle which is pretty epically cool I can draw faster and more creatively it seems with a pen and graph paper.
