Asus Australia Confirms PadFone Coming in July

Asus Padfone, the phone/tablet combo that should have been available on the market a few months ago, has just been confirmed for a July release in Australia.

Unfortunately, the company had previously confirmed the launch of the device, but the Padfone is only available in a few countries. According to Asus, that has something to do with Qualcomm’s recent Snapdragon S4 shortage, which has affected many players in the smartphone and tablet market. Anyway, Aussie Android fans who wish to give this unusual device a try will have to wait a few more months.

The Padfone will come with a few additional accessories, including a dock station, a tablet and even a stylus headset that can take incoming calls. No word on pricing options yet, but expect this one to be pretty expensive when bundled with any of the additional accessories. via AusDroid
