[Asus Transformer TF700] demandarin:
I really like this post. OG keeps the faith alive for current Prime owners. Even with me, as happy as I am with this device, it doesn't feel right with hearing this breaking tech news. This has literally sent a shoockwave through the Prime section of forums. You have people who loved their device regardless and those that wasn't satisfied with GPS or other wireless quality really confused and even more pissed off now. Its like how could Asus do this. They literally came out n said this is an upgraded Prime with all the issues fixed. Its not fair to everyone who owns a Prime because all issued should of or needed tl be fixed with this device. The best thing Asus can do isboffer an exchange program for $50 dollar fee. At least they getting some money vs. exchanging what's really owed to the consumer for free for faults they made. Not us. I still love my Prime but damn. In a tech sense, this hurts..lol. They basically spit in the face of all the early adopters. This is how they repay us?

Another thing this could have a major impact on is Developement for Prime. It already has a developer or 2 questioning future investment in device. I was so true in saying as we get closer n closer to ICS release. things are getting crazier n crazier here. Now people concerned with GPS issues and people happy with device have something to unite about.

In all my time spent here in XDA, I've never seen a thread take traction as fast as this one. In less than 24hrs. we already have over 35 pages full of gripes n comments. This is obviously a huge deal affected the whole range of Prime owners. Although I'm happy with my device, its hard to ignore the fact Asus is releasing new product with some bumped up specs and fixing the issues found in this one. I can guarentee they nines about this for the longest time. Ain't no way they could have a new device like this addressing problems with Prime without them knowing a good amount ahead of time.

This is like knowing some crucial piece if info and you trying to ignore it. But no matter how hard you do, the thought is still in the back of your head. I'm not gonna lie, The Prime I bought for myself was literally the only Christmas present period I got. whether to myself or someone else got it. I really should've just kept my ipad1 and saved the money but I felt I deserved something new n nice. Unwashed due for an upgrade anyways since I had ipad1 almost 2 yrs. I love having the latest n greatest tech devices also but there comes a time when you have to grow up n put priorities first. I got this prime in thought of that I won't be getting anything else, tech wise, for a long time. So I wanted to make the best declsion based on what I was working with and for the long haul. Do you know I almost got a Toshiba thrive or an Acer A100 before the prime due to my impatience? luckily they were sold out also. I originally want the $249 OG Transformer Black Friday sale at Best Buy or $ 300 at Newegg but they were all sold out.

Asus owes it to the early adopters and Prime owners to rectify the situation correctly. Where n xda hell is that Asus representative that joined here supposedly? lmfao. funny how he is no where to be found now in lue of this latest news. SMH
