The inclusion of SD, USB and HDMI ports combined with the slide-out keyboard makes the Eee Pad Slider a great option for the more productive amongst us, Eric Franklin says. It isn't perfect, though: Franklin finds the tablet overly large and the keyboard slightly too small.

While Joanna Stern finds the Eee Pad Slider intriguing, she says a better option would be to buy the basic Eee Pad Transformer and add its optional keyboard dock. That's because the Transformer has a better battery life and slightly larger physical keys.

Most people will probably be better off with a standard slate like the Galaxy Tab 10.1, Anand Lal Shimpi says, but if you're more into producing content than consuming it, he reports that the solid-performing Eee Pad Slider is the tablet to beat. "The Slider is the best marriage of tablet and keyboard that I've seen to date," he writes.

Melissa J. Perenson's opinion echoes Anand Lal Shimpi's: Most people would be better off sticking to a thinner, lighter tablet, she writes. "But if you value portability and productivity in an Android tablet, the Eee Pad Slider could be a great companion," she adds.

The Eee Pad Slider garners a 4.5 out of 5 rating on the weight of its keyboard, preloaded apps and "glorious" screen at this U.K.-based site. However, it may be better suited as a small laptop replacement than a straightforward tablet, reviewer Matthew Bolton notes. The poor battery life is the sole major negative found with the tablet.
