ICS is scheduled for the 12th. I'm wonder which will get here first. Seriously digging through all the meaningless GPS threads to find this one is getting old.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dajackal9999:
Shipped from BJ's !

Talk about quick. I ordered my Prime yesterday after looking at the thread. Shipped and here Jan 5th. Already have tracking number and picked-up status. Good luck all :D

P.S. Now all I have to do is hold onto this Amethyst Gray Dock until I can get a champagne one lol
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fonduedaredevil:
I'm in the same boat as you. Worst-case scenario in my eyes is that they don't ship anything and I'm forced to cancel my order.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aimfire72:
OK, mine actually got here today, nice surprise! Unfortunately, there's one big bright dead pixel in the middle of the screen, ton of light bleed on right side, and glass pushes in on that side as well. Getting sent back tomorrow, what a joke!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Pondy:
Looking at their website, I assume that they don't ship internationl :confused:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sdynak:
Just be sure to read the return policy.. A few things to point out are you can't return to a local store, shipping is on your dime back to them if no issues and there is only a 14 day return from shipped date. You will also be charged if you miss a delivery appointment or refuse it.

Also note if there are no defects you are charged for shipping to you also.

Seems kind of tough.. Not as nice as Costco

It would seem that they just received a shipment of grey docks.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] YorikR32:
Same boat here. 64GB Grey with Dock on order. Ordered 6/12/11 and paid through Google Checkout, so can't log in to check the status of the order. I just read around on the net to see where other Adorama orders are at, then weep a little in the corner in the fetal position as I realise that yet another ASUS device that I have preordered is being delayed and delayed and delayed again..
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] avinash60:
Henry, will you be getting any Primes this week, say tomorrow? Or is it only the docks that are being shipped this week?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hihihehe:
seriously wondering how many stocks you guys getting until now since Best Buy had 7.5k units of 32gb gray and already shipped 6k orders.

is either BEst Buy bull**** or B&H has been left out at the deepest corner side

I believe they just ran out of stock and I missed it just as I was entering in shipping info.....:mad:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] boldbidder:
I made my pre-order on 11/30, just got off the phone with cs and was told that my device (32gb grey) won't ship until 1/15, as others have also observed. This rep was actually very helpful and apologetic offering a credit of my shipping charges. Crossing fingers hoping to avoid any qc issues if/when it finally arrives.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] atoy74:

Ok, I'm getting worried. I ordered yesterday around 930am, I see the pre-authorization on my CC but it's still showing in "Fulfillment."

Did you guys have to call to get your tracking info or are you seeing it online/email tracking info???

Mine came in email.

Is everyone else a member there?

BJs just changed their site to say out of stock. They just changed it in the last 10 minutes because it wasn't like that a few minutes ago.

I dunno. I've checked about 3-4 times today starting from 10 am this morning and it said OOS every time.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bnl552:
I earlier posted that minewas still in fullfillment. After that post i emailed bjs to ask why it had not shipped when others that ordered after me did. They responded back saying it did and gaveme a tracking number. I chose the expedited 2 day shipping as well. If your order still says in fullfillment try calling or emailing. They responded very promptly. I bought a membership, hopefully i like the club. Never been before but i was already thinking about joining sams so chose them instead so i could get my tablet. Cant wait till Saturday.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] slayer69:
Looks like they have been picked over......

Out of Stock

The Item is currently not available.:o
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dipolarylide:
Has anyone talked to B&H recently? I wish they would keep communicating. I know they don't much information, but I am pretty sure it is much more than me.

I will probably have to change shipping address because the month window I planned to be home (starting launch week) for winter holiday is obviously not going to be long enough anymore. It's quite disappointing...

Thanks for the new information if anyone is able to get it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] _jws:
first i have to thanks b&h for getting me my replacement tablet pretty fast.

was able to unbox it this evening. unfortunately, the wifi on this one is noticeably worse than even my previous prime. compared to my laptop from various points in my apt: my laptop gets ~20Mb/s where as the prime floats around ~5-9Mb/s + being spotty.

will try playing with it again tomorrow after work. may return it even though i really wanted to like it.

i feel bad for what asus is putting b&h through.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hihihehe:
so what now B&H?

Asus fooled you guys again and push 32GB Gray color to February?

seriously? Initially was December, then January and now February.What next? Gray color discontinued?

Are you guys having some issue with Asus in terms of relationship??hmm
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Falhawk:
woah wait what the ****? They are sending out replacements while people are still waiting on their first orders?? How defective was the one you sent back or were you just not pleased with it? This is BS.

---------- Post added at 01:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:21 PM ----------

f it, best buy has them in stock right now. Just placed my order, will be cancelling with B&H today.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mutiny:
I hope you pre-ordered the 64GB so your cancelling might move me up the line. :) If you did pre-order the 64GB, thanks in advance.

This is how rumors get started.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Falhawk:
Nope, 32gb grey sorry.

It just chaps my ass that they are sending out replacements while others are still waiting. I worked retail a while back while in college and know that many people return things as "defective" when they really aren't.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] HuskerWebhead:
Tigerdirect.com has the Prime listed now too for preorder, although clicking on the "Add to Cart" option brings up an error that the item doesn't exist. grrrrrr
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] smashingblue:
I can't believe it seems like once again we're going to go through pre-order hell in order to get this tablet.

While not pre-order the Prime is coming soon to us Canadians. :)

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
What makes you think we're going to go through "pre-order hell" to get the Prime? ASUS hasn't said a single word about when the thing is actually going to ship, and there's absolutely no reason to think that these merchants putting up pre-orders has anything actually to do with its actual release.

As far as we know, ASUS will announce the actual release and the Prime will be readily available from any number of outlets. I'd recommend taking a pill and relaxing awhile until ASUS actually makes that announcement.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JoeJags:
Prime page is up (Edit:preorder buttons now linking to stores)

You can add the item to your cart and go to checkout. Have to sign in, to get to the next stage. I'm waiting to see one in person @ the store, but for first out of the gaters, it's an option.

Asus Product Page

http://www.asus.com/Eee/Eee_Pad/Eee_Pad_Transformer_Prime_TF201#overview
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Bob Smith42:
I think the TF201 will have lots of upgrades, possibly including screen resolution, mobile connectivity, storage increase, etc.

Also, it is a fair bet Apple will sue Asus over the TF101, with no grounds, just whining about losing iPad 1/2/3 sales. ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Just checked it out. You can add it to cart but it says temporarily out of stock. Will ship once back n stock n send you an email. You won't be Billed until it ships.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hafzul.bhuiyan:
[/COLOR]

Because if they did that then none of the TF101's that are left would be sold. Also notice that the Model #s are TF201-B1 (32GB) and TF201-C1 (64GB). I think they may have reserved the Model # TF201-A1 for a 16GB version. For all we know it might come out after all the TF101's are sold.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kokusho:
I'm pretty sure 16go of Nand doesn't cost 100$.

A 16go Prime model at 399$ would severly cut into Asus marging, all that top tier stuff the Prime is made of doesn't come cheap.

They are smart to market it this way.

By still prividing (and updating) a perfectly fine low price Transformer and then giving a little pricier High end device like the Prime, everyone will find something that suit their needs.

And they doesn't need to developp and produce a cheap version of the prime (just reducing storage doesn't cut enough production cost). It's what Apple does.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] blackinjun:
Has anyone noticed that Amazon Canada is listing release date of 12/16

I was getting excited until I noticed my amazon order said shipping after Dec 25. I ordered at 753 pacific time. I had a bookmark set to search for Tf201 on amazon and I checked this morning but didn't see it. Amazons search is all messed up :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lancer3397:
hmm interesting. went to amazon.com, attempted to place pre-order for the TF Prime. It won't let me choose a UK shipping address and won't complete the order process, suggestions anyone?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] docrob:
My Amazon order also says shipping after December 25th. I think it's most likely that no one knows, so no one will commit to a specific date. If they commit to a date and then that date passes, then crazy people (like us) will go nuts. Who needs that?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] belayson:
Futureshop (a canadian technology store owned by BestBuy) has the prime for pre-order too, but it has an estimated release date of Dec 5!

here's another one to think about. if pre-ordered from germany, will the keyboard be qwerty? or QWERTZ? the picture on the site shows qwerty but that is a standard promo image.
