ASUS Transformer TF101 with docking station
| 31/8/2011 | Posted by Pete under Play |
Just bought the ASUS Transformer TF101 with the docking station, and I’m pretty impressed. The unit came with Android 3.1, but very quickly got an update to version 3.2. The device can be used as a slate device, like the iPad, but with the addition of the keyboard dock (which also extends the battery life considerably) it becomes an Android netbook.
There is a raft of bundled software, including Polaris Office, which is capable of replacing Microsoft Office for reading and making edits to Office files. Power users will be disappointed perhaps, but for me the functionality is great. You also have access to all the Android apps on the market, as well as any you download from third parties.
I think that this is the first Android tablet that compares favourably with the Apple iPad(2). Having used it I don’t think I would ever change to an iPad (I’ve tried out the iPad and I like it too, but this just blows it away!)
Absolutely brilliant! Click the picture below to buy one from Amazon.co.uk.

We all know the speed at which New Year’s Resolutions become forgotten, or how promises are rapidly broken and how good intentions crumble under weight of everyday life. In order to make sure when we make our next set of vows, promises and commitments that we don’t fall into the same old trap, we need to look at the reasons behind the failures, and make changes that will make it easier on ourselves.
This could take the form of putting things on an easily accessible calendar, sticking a reminder on your computer or fridge, or simply ensuring that you build it into your daily routine. If you don’t change the things you do that aren’t working, then you will get the same results you did before.
So, before you attempt a change that you’ve tried and failed to do in the past, ask yourself the question.
