Walmart's Transformer a Different Package?

My order from Walmart also says 1lb. I doubt it is a different tablet to be honest. Maybe that weight includes the keyboard dock also?

All of a sudden, it crosses my mind this way.

- From the official Transformer spec, the weight is 1.5 lbs.
- Walmart's product page is showing the product is 14.33 oz. (Walmart.com: Asus 10.1" IPS Tablet PC, Black/Brown: ARCHIVE SHELF/CAT)
- From my FedEx tracking page, the package is shipping to me is only 1 pound.

So it let me wonder, is Walmart selling a different ASUS tablet???

Whatever the case, unless you have another package coming that is not the Asus, 1 pound is an error or something else.

bought mine from Walmart as well and it also shows shipping weight at 1lbs. I doubt it's different than the rest, but I also doubt that they could make mistakes on what seems like 3 or 4 shipments from this thread...:confused:
we'll see, I'm getting the package today, will report back as soon as I get it.
 
But just the tablet itself is 1.5lbs. How could it fit to a box together with charger and everything, bam, it becomes 1 lbs?
 
It's probably a typo, you guys will find out soon enough im sure. FWIW the charger is pretty small and the box from amazon was about the size of a box they ship hardcover books.
 
duh keep forgetting to convert from mg, maybe they rounded it down? I would think a company like walmart would always round up on shipping weight...who knows
 
alright guys, I just received the package and in the middle of setting it up right now. I can tell you, it's not 1lbs. not sure how Walmart scammed Fedex...! it's definitely at least 10lbs or so if not the stated 14lbs. this thing looks sweet!!! looks much better quality than the Acer!!!
 
got my Transformer. IT IS the same package =)

It ship with a Fedex Large Box. Shipping label clearly say 1lb.
