While we’re all wondering when will the ASUS Eee Pad Transformer be available for purchase, Maxis has confirmed that the HTC Flyer will be available from them starting May 27.
Earlier Maxis made a joint announcement with HTC to announce the HTC Flyer. At the event, availability was set at May 12 but apparently due to stock issues, the availability date of the flyer had to be delayed.
What is still unclear and is still intriguing to us is the RM199 deal for the HTC Flyer that Maxis says it will be offering. Maxis COO, Jean Pascal Van Overbeke said that the offer is not a gimmick and its something worth looking forward to.
Come May 27, we will all know if this is indeed true. Stay tuned.
Big thanks to commenter Jason for the tip!

Let's wait and see

Yup. Confirmed that's the pricing model. You will need to pay something like 2.4k for the tablet and sign on for the tablet 16GB plan which goes for around RM250 monthly. There will be monthly rebate of around RM90 x 24 months which indirectly will leave you with RM199 price.
I got the info during the Maxis One Club event in Alexis last Saturday.

"On 12 May 2011, the first 50 customers who visit the Maxis centre at KLCC will be able to purchase the HTC Flyer at a special price of RM999, enjoying savings of approximately RM1,500."
