Shinigami, 05 Apr 2012Sure, getting tablet, phone and keyboard dock for $1000 doe... moreTrue, but consider this:

The package would be a very good alternative for professionals on the move. Less to carry with the availability of all your applications and kit in one piece.

I'd love one.

    that is so true. why waste your money on this item wherein you can buy 3 items for $1000 which you can separately. The price is an epic fail indeed.They should have made the price cheaper. Well if you are a wise buyer you would not buy this item. The idea is cool but I will not waste my money on this.

              lalo, 05 Apr 2012exactly for 1k usd you have 1 usable item while for 1.2-1.2... moreWhy would you want to use the phone and tablet at the same time it doesnt even make sense.. if you want to call somebody just take the phone out or use the stylus, you guys are just ignorant trolls, besides this phone has a dual core krait thats much more powerfull than your stupid quad core tablet.

                It looks like Motorola got a much better concept with their Webtop 3.0

                  exactly for 1k usd you have 1 usable item while for 1.2-1.2k you would have top phone + transformer prime tf201

                  i say, price is epic fail, and thats coming from happy transformer prime owner

                        Shinigami, 05 Apr 2012Sure, getting tablet, phone and keyboard dock for $1000 doe... moreIt's like having 3 devices and just one it's functional. If you want to use the phone, you can't use the tablet, you can't use the netbook(tablet and the dock attached to). If you use the tablet, you can't use the phone(inside the tablet), you can't use the netbook(akward position to use both keyboard and touchscreen). If you use the netbook ... and that's my point. Plus it looks uglier too, this isn't even half the beauty of Transformer Prime.

                            I think with the Carrier subsidy a price tag of 400 would be nice for all inclusive...that's only about 500 off and it's feasible !!

                              Sure, getting tablet, phone and keyboard dock for $1000 doesn't seem like a terrible deal for everything unlocked, but consider this:
                              Tablet dock doesn't work by itself. Its not a tablet, its a docking station. Thus it can't be used when you use phone elsewhere.
