The Transformer Pad TF300T has launched in Australia with a starting price of $499, which is only a couple of hundred dollars less than its highly rated big brother, the Transformer Prime.

I know you came here looking for a keyboard case, but my honest opinion is that if you do any serious typing with your iPad, you should get the Apple Bluetooth keyboard, along with a separate case to protect your tablet.

We learned back in February that Virgin Australia would be trialling the Samsung Galaxy Tab as an in-flight entertainment option, and that only business class passengers would be in the first round of testing. But it turns out the trial is even more restricted than that: it’s only running for a single week. Fortunately, there’s better news ahead.
During Apple’s call today to discuss its monster earnings last quarter, CEO Tim Cook was asked his opinion on Windows 8. He said all of the expected things about how the iPad has unlimited potential, but also weighed in on tablet-PC hybrid devices with this little bon mot.
