A promo flyer has been found for Toshiba in America, already showing details and prices, plus a discount code, for the new Device Label items (just called Transformers).

Good news is that Toshiba have upped the size to 4Gb on the USBs without upping the price too much (now US$40 - I think DL ones were about US$30?), but the bad is that the discount code is probably only valid for US addresses.

Also featured are the Grimlock and Trypticon (yes, they call it Trypticon - Dinosaurer was just the JP name for Trypticon) optical mouses, for US$50 each.

I was holding out on the USBs to see what the US ones were like, and may well just get these versions now.
(I'll try to find out if these will be released in Australia as well).

Are they even up on Toshiba's site yet? The flier does say "order online" but I had a look but couldn't find them.

but the bad is that the discount code is probably only valid for US addresses.
That in itself isn't really a problem if their site accepts non US credit cards then one could just ship to a US address then forward it on.

Good to hear that they upgraded the size of the memory sticks but a little dissapointed that they didn't go for an Overkill repaint for the mouse.

Looks that way as far as the Japanese go.
