Asus Eee Pad Slider pics, set to launch “soon”

With the bevy of announcements from Asus in their pre-COMPUTEX presscon, like the 3D tablet and the PadFone, you could forgive us of we didn’t get around to our hands on of the Eee Pad Slider sooner. Nevertheless, its here now and we liked what we saw: 10.1-inch LED IPS screen, retractable keyboard (unlike the detachable design in the Transformer) and Android 3.0 on board.

Asus has teased that the tablet is coming soon from its own Facebook account, though a firm date was never mentioned. There’s also a bit of debate of whether the Transformer would use NVIDIA’s Tegra 2 processor or Intel’s Atom Z670 as reported by Engadget.
