Not only did it sell out in short order, but <a href="http://www.crunchgear.com/2011/05/02/report-asus-limited-to-only-10k-transformer-tablets-per-month-due-to-component-shortage/" target="_blank">reports</a> are surfacing that their supply may be limited to just 10,000 units per month. This is a very nice looking device at a great price, so it's no wonder it's popular, but supply issues may end up hurting it's sales.</p>
