*"The Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime happens to the first Quad-Core Android
Tablet <http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2397083,00.asp>, which also
makes it the fastest and most powerful tablet. The secret ingredient is
Nvidia's five-core Tegra 3 chipset, including four cores which work
together at up to 1.4GHz each and a 'companion core' which runs alone. When
tested on the Antutu system benchmark, the Prime scored a breathtaking
10,619, which is roughly double the score of even fast devices like the HTC
Jetstream. Benchmark results for Sunspider and Browsermark browsing scored
at 17ms and 98324, respectively, which also happened to be amongst the
best. The tablet weighs 1.3 pounds and measures 10.4 by 7.1 inches, but
it's very slim at 0.3 inches."*
