Rumour: Asus Eee Pad Transformer 2 scheduled for November 7th release

There are rumours circulating on the internet stating that Asus Eee Pad Transformer 2 are scheduled for November 7th release date.

Asus CEO Jerry Shen had also said that the company is planning to release the tablet before the end of the year, and that looks to be confirmed by UK retailer LambdaTek.

LambdaTek has posted a listing for the Transformer 2 on its website as model TF201-1I020A with a release date of November 7th, which would certainly hit the release window that Asus mentioned. The posting also has a list price of £448, which is in the range that a $500 tablet might be listed in the UK. The listing even gives specs including a quad-core Tegra 3 CPU, 32GB storage, 1GB RAM, and Android Honeycomb (3.x).

Asus also was confirming that it is set on pricing the upcoming tablet at USD$499, and that is some pretty good news.

NVIDIA also has confirmed the dual-core Tegra 2 (Kal-El) SoC chipset would be ready on September.

The Transformer 2 could be reaching our shore in late November or early December and that would definitely be a very nice surprise.
