ASUS prices 10-inch Android Eee Pad under $399, 8-inch Eee Tablet at $300, other tablets too

ASUS just dumped Windows Embedded Compact 7 for Android for its lower-end tablet devices, and CEO Jerry Shen is passing along the savings. He’s pledging that the 10-inch Eee Pad EP101TC, because of ship in March, will cost under $399 — and if the Notion Ink Adam is any indication which means it’ll be $398. Then there’s the EP121, a 12-inch tablet running Windows 7 that’s positioned rather higher up out there, as indicated by its $1,000 ticket. Shen says this high cost is owing to that docking station ready to intriguingly transform it into a laptop when it ships around December or January. Next is yet one more Eee Pad due around January, one who will run Windows Embedded Compact 7 on a 10-inch screen and at a cost somewhere south of $499. Finally, there’s the grayscale Eee Tablet e-reader thing, formerly rumored to be under $599 but now priced at a solid $300 and, supposedly, shipping in October. Surely we’re mere months far from tablet saturation at this point.
