Back in May we told you that ASUS was going to launch the first tablet with NVIDIA's quad-core chipet called Kal-El. We were hoping to see the first devices in August, but NVIDIA told us to relax until October. It looks like ASUS is still on track to be the first, it will just be a little later.

This one could be dubbed the Transformer 2. The first Transformer is still selling out everywhere, and I have no doubt this baby will get the same buzz as long as they price it right. I would like to see it launch with a price of $399 along with a reduced price for the first Transformer to $299. They better get their production ready because sales could explode.
