What you -- say. I thought we were past getting excited over tablets especially 500 dollar tablets. But the transformer -- is hot. It has a Quad Core Nvidia tegra three processor in a body that's thinner and lighter than the iPad two. There's -- gig of internal memory up to 64 gigs of onboard storage plus a micro SD slot for more.
