Product pictures on Gdgt
Those pictures do not look right. Bezel is wrong and the keyboard dock should have an actual button near the track pad. Oh yeah, and what's up with the Windows logo key on there?

ics on transformer
I was excited about getting ics on my transformer. It finally came last night its not that big a deal. There is no face unlock (not that I was going to use it.) And the new voice to text isn't working. Other than that its just small UI changes.

Ultraportable vs tablet
I currently use a 17" notebook as my primary machine. This is great in theory as it has a great screen and lots of muscle, but due to it's size and weight I rarely take it anywhere.As I am traveling more often now I need something more portable to take with me and would love to hear your opinions.

In addition to basic web browsing I game and occasionally use my notebook for...

Dissappointed with Honeycomb
Last week my mom got the Asus Transformer with the dock because she's tired of using the iPod Touch for chatting over Yahoo and browsing Facebook (screen too small and dissatisfaction with digital keyboard). She wanted a tablet because she wants a better chat and web experience and chose the Transformer specifically because it has the keyboard option allowing her to type much faster. Since she doesn't type in English, typing on a digital keyboard can be painfully slow especially when you have to...

OK ladies & gentlepeeps, it's time I got an Android tablet - I need to evaluate and possibly, force myself to use one more.
Which one would you tell me to get, and why?

Can anyone tell me if the Transformer's screen is readable outside in sunlight?
I'm looking for such a tablet, but none of the manufacturer's seem to specify the brightness nits in their specs and none of the reviews address this aspect.
