Honeycomboptimised apps are sparse
No 5GHz WiFi
No charging over USB
Android isn't yet fully notebook ready
Lack of palmcheck on touch pad is annoying
No delete key
A few things keep the Transformer from completely blowing us away

Its sharp edges
A build quality that's somewhat lacking
And problems that arise when docking
Keyboard is a little slow when used in the web browser

Keyboard/touchpad might take some getting used to; Android OS can be powerful but fiddly.
