ASUS: Eee Pad Transformer delays due to demand, not component shortages

We’ve previously heard that the Eee Pad is delayed in some markets due to supply shortages, as Asus is facing shortage of materials. However, that doesn’t seem to be true, as Asus has stepped up and make an official statement regarding this issue. According to Netbook News, the company has seen overwhelming demand for the device, and is currently planning to put 100,000 units on the street in May, followed by an additional 200,000-plus in June. “If the demand continues to increase substantially,” said David Chan, Asus spokesperson, “then we will have to continue to ramp up production in order to fulfil our customers’ demand.”
