Asus EeePad Transformer Prime TF300T

Am noticing a big price difference between Amazon.co.uk (£499) and Amazon.de (€499). Can anyone see it cheaper anywhere (in the EU)?

€399, who'd a thought it! :eek:

Cheers, Jarren.

Edit: Ah, that's without the dock. But why is it €499 in blue and €599 in grey?

Doh!

Am I missing something, or is the newer "Lite" model not practically identical in terms of spec?

If not, back to my original question - does anyone see the Transformer Prime with the dock for better than €499?

Cheers; found this comparison, too...

TF300 vs. Prime

For those with a bit fatter pockets, the Transformer Prime starts at $500 for 32GB, and its key advantages over the TF300 are an LED flash on the camera, a thinner metal design, slightly faster operating speed, and its Super IPS mode, which allows the tablet's screen to get really bright. It's great for outdoor use.

However, the TF300's camera takes better pictures and, unlike the Prime, its GPS feature works well enough to be listed on its spec sheets (although Asus has released a free GPS dongle to Prime owners to address the issue). Not to mention slightly better Wi-Fi performance.
