ASUS Transformer Book shows sudden sign of life: 13-inch Core i5 model coming to Japan this week

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;"> <img alt="ASUS Transformer Book shows sudden interest in being real 13inch Core i5 and i7 models coming to Japan this month" data-src-height="340" data-src-width="620" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/03/asus-transbook-lead2.jpg" /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">The Transformer Book's entry into the world has been hampered by a couple of things: high pre-order prices for the Core i7 version, plus a degree of forgetfulness with respect to actually coming to market. News out of Japan hints at both of those hold-ups being overcome, however, with a cheaper Core i5 version officially due to arrive this week with a 119,800 price tag (that's $1,280 in a currency conversion, though a US price would very likely be less.) The Windows 8 hybrid will be known as the "TransBook" in the streets and alleys of Tokyo and will include a 1080p 13.3-inch touchscreen display, 4GB RAM, 128GB SSD and microSD expansion all housed in the 950 gram tablet. Hooking up to the keyboard dock will double that weight but provide an additional 500GB HDD, a full-sized SD card slot, two USB 3.0 ports, more video-out options and an extra hour of battery life (six hours instead of five). The Core i7 version will also be available in Japan by the end of March for around $350 extra, with similar basic credentials and the addition of MS Office. Assuming the Transformer Book ever moseys on over to our manor, we'll be sure to submit it to a review. In the meantime, you'll find full specs in the machine-translated PR after the break.</div><div class="post-gallery" dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;"><h3 class="title"><strong>ASUS Transformer Book hands-on</strong></h3><br /> <img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/06/zshbook001_95x95.jpg" /> <img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/06/zshbook002_95x95.jpg" /> <img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/06/zshbook003_95x95.jpg" /> <img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/06/zshbook004_95x95.jpg" /> <img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/06/zshbook005_95x95.jpg" /> <img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/06/zshbook006_95x95.jpg" /> </div><div dir="ltr" id="pr_box_button" style="text-align: left;">Hide Press Release</div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;"> <strong>Japanese PR translated by Google: </strong></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;"> We have announced that it will be released in Japan for mobile laptop "ASUS TransBook TX300CA" detachable high specification that can be used in your favorite style.
