ASUS Report "Logistical Mishap" Delaying T91

ASUS' Eee PC T91 convertible touchscreen netbook should have been on sale in the UK for several weeks now, but the 8.9-inch tablet has been suspiciously absent from online and bricks-and-mortar retail stores.  According to what a company official told AsusTablet, that delay is due to a "logistical mishap" in distribution; we can apparently expect the netbook to arrive in stores from Monday June 22nd.

The ASUS representative did not go on to explain the exact nature of the "mishap", although they were at pains to point out that the T91 is still shipping.  It's also unclear whether the delay will impact shipments of the netbook outside of the UK; the T91 was supposed to begin shipping in the US this week.

Buyers of the tablet will get an Intel Atom Z520 processor, 1GB of RAM and a 16GB SSD.  What makes the T91 interesting is its rotating display, which can be folded flat against the keyboard and thus leaving the netbook as a touchscreen slate.  Standard and 3G versions are expected.
