First Alternative to the iPad2

Posted in: Tech Alternatives, Technology by Paul McEwan on June 13, 2011

Asus Eee TransformerWell today marks the start of a new Category in the TribalYell Blog called “Technology Alternatives”.

When the iPhone first appeared I was often asked, “do I need to get an iPhone now?” The answer was of course a resounding no and I would go on to explain the ever changing landscape of other touch screen smart phones. So I thought this new category would would be handy. I work with Real Estate Professionals, Fitness Instructors, Doctors and Lawyers. If you are in one of those businesses and looking for tech tools that are cheaper and better than the standard everyone else is using. Keep checking back.

Our first entry is the first ever alternative to the iPad2 that is worthy of talking about: Asus Eee Pad Transformer

First let me start by saying I am not and this is not an Apple Anti love-in to counter the world Apple orgasm taking place at this writing. That’s why the category is not called Apple Alternatives.  At some point Apple may actually be included in this very category if everyone switches camp (remembering the Palm at this point).

It’s taken a while for anyone to catch up to the innovation of the iPad and Apple in general and wins on that account hands down. Any touch pad to be released into the wild from this point on will undoubtedly be compared to it. Just making something that does the same thing as the iPad is not enough. Why even look at such a product? No, What ever comes out now must be better and cheaper than the iPad to make any sort of splash in the slate/pad universe that Apple has created. The Asus Eee Transformer does that. If you are looking for an alternative to the iPad2, watch this review and you will see what I mean.
