why they take so long to come up with 3g version de. Sony also same thing. Asus is the worst wait over 6months for the current TF tablet..zzzz
I dont know about you but for me, I dont need 3G version, I can just easily wifi hotspot to my android phone and surf net. Unless you got a Data Sim Card if not, I really dont see any convenience answering a call from your tablet.

Anyone has any idea on how much Asus Prime will cost locally?

Most 32gb tablet(wifi only) cost around USD599 or SGD 798.
The Asus Prime is 32gb but the announced price is USD499, which is expected to be around 668?

But will it end up in the similar price range of the 32gb tablets?

Don't know man, anything that comes into Singapore will end up expensive even thought it is cheap overseas...

we are such suckers....

IF I pre-order from Amazon @USD499, + shipping using Vpost the total adds up to around SGD750 which might be cheaper if they really peg Prim to the price of the 32gb tablets....

Or anyone knows a reputable site with international shipping ?

Pre-ordering now means getting the device much earlier then it will be release in SG, but if the local price is really USD499 or 668 that means forking out an additional 70 bucks for it to get it early? doesn't sound too bad

but of course there's the issue of warranty, etc...

get rdy to expect a price tag of at least SGD$800++ 32GB without dock.
they like to jack up the price so high and may encourage ppl to get ipad after much thinking.
n i don think will have international warranty same as the TF01.
Just my 2 cents.
