Asus have released a new video showcasing a sleeve accessory for its upcoming Asus EEE Pad Transformer Prime.

The new sleeve protects the screen when your not using your tablet, but also doubles as a stand for the Transformer Prime. You fold up the sleeve so it sits beneath your tablet to raise it so its much easier to use !

It's a slick accessory that takes its inspiration from Apple's iPad 2 Smart Cover. We're not sure whether the sleeve will come with the Transformer Prime or if you'll have to buy it separately.

3G is very excited about the Transformer Prime and expect it to be the best tablet in the world when it launches next year.

One of the standout features is that you can dock the tablet into a keyboard dock effectively turning it into a laptop. Sadly, the keyboard dock won't come with the device , but will be available for a small fee.

The EEE Transformer Prime will have a quad-core processor, 8 mega-pixel camera and a choice of 32 or 64GB of onboard memory.

Once we get more news about the Asus EEE Pad Transformer Prime we'll be sure to let you know.
