Stock trickles in to BB and FS every so often. Otherwise your best bet is to backorder it.

that staples link had it in stock for over a day meaning a lot of demand has died now.
before it would be out of stock in a matter of hours.
there is a thread on the Prime on Redflagdeals.com forum where they have some good almost realtime updates on stock in several stores. cant link it cuz it seems RFD is down or at least for me :S

ASUS released an over-the-air update for the Eee Pad Transformer Prime on Thursday. The update will boost the GPS version to 6.9.13 and improve the tablet’s faulty signal according to user accounts

Anyone user Supernote extensively on the Transformer (/Prime)?
Considering replacing my EEE 1215n which I've used for note taking for about 1 & years and get a decent 5.5 hours of battery life. However a netbook is obviously limited with the ability to draw diagrams or snapping pics of said diagrams, Transformer Prime looks to be a good upgrade for that.
How does it compare to Onenote in-terms of organization? Does it backup to a universal format like PDF or doc?
Also, hows the stability of ICS on the Transformer Prime? Any issues with keyboard input?

64GB Grey finally came in (preordered 11/22 from NCIX). Works great, but anyone else have a little bit of backlight bleed?

Just ordered my keyboard dock from BestBuy US. They finally got more stock.
FYI I'm ordering from the US because I want the US keyboard and not the crap bilingual ones we have here.

Basically canadian dock has the left shift split into 2 with one being an extra \ and the return key is weirdly shaped as well as having a \ on the left of it. Also has extra characters printed on some of the keys. It's a small thing I guess but it's always annoyed me and was one of the first things I've always replaced on my laptops.

Just picked up the purple 32gb with docking his morning, 5400hkd, around $715cdn.
It is fucking awesome device with incredible weight. However the mouse movement and internet browsing are quite croppy at this point, also it is not so convenience with no 3g slot.
T700 is coming soon, but it is pointless to have a 10" screen running at 1920x1024, I don't think human eyes could see the difference. Posted via RS Mobile |

This is my first time having an Android OS, I haven't spent too much time on it yet, even it is on the dock, I always swipe the screen with my fingers.
Read many write ups last night on other forums saying the current OS hasn't fully unleash the potential of Tegra 3  can't wait to see the new Win8 + Tegra 3

Windows 8 will be compatible with tegra3 when it gets released. It will most likely be ported to the Prime.

Just wondering.... What do you guys use the GPS on your tablet for?
The only time I've seen it active on my OG transformer is when I'm searching for a business on Google Maps
