YES, I have my pre-order for KEYBOARD DOCK GREY from Best Buy on 11/23/11 shipped today 12/19/11 via UPS
No I don’t have mine yet, but I wanted to start a thread to record when USA ONLY shipped products arrived. This could be products ordered from USA supplier and shipped internationally. So next time (for Prime 2) we can see which suppliers were able to ship first. I know that may not be true next time but it is a starting place to order from.
Please do NOT post in this thread for ANYTHING else, comments, great idea etc. Just complete the forum to keep this thread clean. I am asking the Sys Moderator to please remove ANY post that do not follow this guide line.
I guess this thread may need a bump (or becomes a Sticky) for a couple of days to keep it on the first page and easily visible until orders start arriving next week.
If you bought the Prime from one vendor and the keyboard from another please complete TWO forms, one for each vendor.
Please copy/paste this form and complete ALL entries.

The title may be misleading but if I ever do a pre-order again, it would be nice to know what company may have the edge.
That said, I don't think I'll put myself through this again. My productivity at work has taken a significant dive since 11/22.

Well get ready people, all our posts will be removed. As we don't follow the OP strict guidelines for posting in this thread. lol
It could be a good idea though on what his intentions are. Title is misleading though. I was ready to congratulate the OP then he tricked me
Until people actually start receiving the Prime, this thread seems to be heading down the tubes. I can see him/her screaming and pulling hair out. While looking at posts on device. Screaming "where are the sys. Mods at, they aren't following my guidelines!"
Just a lil humor

Ok. I have read this post several times now. Each time I read it I think you to be more insane. Ok so insane may be a little harsh. You, at a minimum have an inflated self-worth. Do you really feel like somebody, by the time the 'Prime 2' arrives, might actually come back to this very important thread to see who they should order from? Do you think this 'may need a sticky'? Really? That is akin to saying the 'how hyped are you thread' may need a sticky. You actually asked the mod to come keep this thread clean as if you created or dev'd something that we need to have a clear view on? On second thought insane isn't all that harsh.

The good folks at xda have temporarily taken the thread down for review.
This really stinks. I had that thread bookmarked so I can go over it later as it has a lot more images than the e-crap website does, as well as a great write up for each case. I hope they re-instate the thread as it was very informative for us just getting the tablet from the Woot sale.
Hmmm. Hopefully they will reinstate the thread and allow Steve to continue operating here: he has done a great deal to help the XDA g tablet community get our hands on accessories, some of which might not even have existed without his efforts.
I actually ordered something from there yesterday. I was a little leary since i hadn't heard about it before. Hopefully all is well.

I wouldn't worry about placing an order, looks as though quite a few people have done business with Steve. I plan to as soon as the latest shipment comes in.
I'm gonna take a guess that the whole thread removal has something to do with a developer reviewing and selling product. I for one appreciate his efforts and am OK with this situation, if that is indeed the problem.

I ordered from him last week. Fast shipment and responded super quick to all my questions. Overall great guy and great experience. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from him again. Not sure why the post was just removed as its been up for a while.
Cool. I will review the CLIP folio when I get it. Thanks guys.
I'm looking for the P4 case review but looks like the same thread is missing. Hopefully it will be back up soon. Anyone has any experience with that case?
I was watching that thread waiting for the black clip cases to be in stock. Where can I get that information now?

I'll second that.
Steve is a stand up guy. I have bought a couple of accessories from him with no problems - he was very quick in fact - and watched many others here do likewise. I have yet to see anybody write a bad word about him.
If the thread was pulled, it is most likely on a forum posting rules issue: there is actually a Marketplace forum on XDA somewhere - anybody here actually check that forum?? - and it may be that his cases thread should be in there, according to the rules.
Thing is you need several posts to even read that forum. I can't remember the last time I went there and I would guess quite a few folks in here would say the same.
Yep. I have purchased from that site as well. Fast shipping and fair prices. Plus I liked the review thread because it gave good information and was not what I would call just marketing.
Steve also posts over at AndroidTablet, and there is a review thread there as well
I'm disappointed by this as well, because I too had the thread bookmarked. I don't have enough posts to use the XDA marketplace, and I don't like to make BS posts just bump my post-count. If I have nothing constructive to say, I don't say anything. (except maybe this post )
Which of his cases are compatible with the dock without removing the tablet from the doc? Since I can't find detailed pics, based on reading the description it seems like just the clip, but, maybe others are as well?
I really enjoyed reading the updates I can't wait for the black clip to come into stock
I ordered the White CLIP, didn't want to wait for the black in case they never come in. Don't really care about the color.
Does anyone know if his shipment came in?

EDIT: I wouldn't trust this with all my heart either. As Asus's response is rather fishy and can be interpreted multiple ways.

Do we know if this statement covers Canada as well? My Amazon.ca pre-order still shows Jan 31st as the expected ship date (ordered on Nov 26).

Hopefully. If the NCIX email was false then we (Canada) should be back on track. However, the Amazon delay is a stock issue rather than a delay as far as I know.
I'm in no way trying to be a mod, but was this thread needed? Was there not a thread posted earlier in regards to the phandroid and androidcentral articles based on the other thread where someone posted their letter from NCIX? Either way even though the rep used very loose words if you can read in between the lines, it pretty much falls in line with what I said. US is most likely on track still, just not a huge initial alotment. As an aside, these forums seemed to be going crazy today. I guess everyone is really anxious over the Prime, which they ought to be, and every article or piece of information regarding it, is driving everyone to the edge. We all need to just do whatever we usually do to relax and just enjoy talking about the tablet we are all looking forward to while we wait.

Thank you, although I know I got on ur case in another thread..lmao I ran out of thanks. THIS IS THE FIRST ARTICLE THAT ACTUALLY HAS INFORMATION FROM THE HORSES MOUTH. The words that came out of the horses mouth, Asus, said there is no delay and they still on track for Dec. 19th release. Also verge, is thinkn theres no real widespread wifi issue.
I'm not by far an android fanboy. That person wouldn't own an iPad like I do. I'm a fan of technology in general. No matter the maker. It's just that this device is very promising and has already be said, by several big name sites, to be the best Android tablet by far, so far. To many people trying to nit pick negative info and rain on peoples parade and excitement of this new device which will be a first of it's kind in more ways than one. the majority of people who preordered still stickn with it.
Mission failed at trying to scare the real tech heads away from this device.
That's it... to much BS floating around here, and not enough facts... which is fine, but there are threads popping up every few minutes now about the release date... we need a moderator on this forum... Be putting this off for a while, but I'm volunteering.
See you on the flip side, and hopefully I'll be able to clean some of this crap up.

Actually this thread was needed.. With all the unofficial rumor threads going around. This first article to state official Asus statement saying there is no delay and basically no widespread wifi issues. You have new people checking out this forum section and see all these rumor threads/negative ones and it might deter them from a great device.
Not everyone smart enough to read in-between the lines. It's obvious that slot of people here will believe anything, with no official source to back it up. I'm like you though, I'm ready to relax. Once I get my tablet n everything fine, I'll be sitting back laughing at all these mofos so quick to jump to conclusions. They never gave the prime a fair trial. Innocent until proven guilty. They already giving out guilty verdict without no real evidence that's relevant enough. Lol

I feel you, I sold my TF to get the Prime and I'm just waiting myself. I try to keep my mind occupied and not think about it. Although everyday I check my order status on Newegg. lol
I'll believe it when Asus mentions something on an official channel.
Since all this speculation is the only entertainment I have as I study for finals i will play devil's advocate here.
That statement from asus is about as vague as it comes. we still "show" to be on schedule? If they are on schedule why not say they ARE on schedule to be released? Why beat around the bush?
Also the whole I will provide an update when i have more information? What more information are you waiting for if there is no delay? I thought you had the information and knew what you were talking about?
Finally why is there absolutely no actual reference to the delay or wifi issue? A simple, no there is no wifi issue, no there is no delay would allay everyone's concerns, but instead all we have is a very vague statement that does not fully dispel anything.
MUAHAHA let the war begin!
But really I think I may have been the first to post about the possible delay when I received an email from memory express stating there was some sort of production delay. Since then it only seems like NCIX has mentioned this to their customers so something weird is going on. It is odd that both retailers would mention a production delay if they were not told that was the case. But really it seems like the possibilities are there is some small problem with a few units (perhaps like the anandtech reviewers received, as in actually broken units) and asus happens to be reducing the units NCIX and memory express are getting. Or they simply do not have enough to fullfill all orders and are cutting out units from NCIX and memory express to fulfill other orders and then NCIX and memory express are lying to us.
I honestly believe the first is probably the most likely as I cant imagine first off memory express and NCIX both choosing to lie to their customers like that (and in my email they were actually quite explicit saying the Asus Vice President for North America Sales and Distribution contacted them about the delay. That is a pretty blatant lie to be telling customers.
Either way I'm staying hopeful I will get my unit sometime during the holiday season as I will be in alberta where the taxes I would have to pay is quite a bit lower! So come on anytime before Jan 4th! And hell if it turns out they lied to me about the whole vice president delay blah blah blah I'll give them hell and maybe get something out of it!

there beating are bush and its way to fishy to me. I bet theres a wifi issue, but i don't think its a big deal, its probably a few models are screwed and the rest arn't as good as an laptop (do to what i read an another thread)
This was posted on slashgear's web site sorry I am not allowed to post the web link.
Late last night rumors hit the street that the ASUS Transformer Prime had been delayed and I’m sure a few were saddened by such news. After almost every online retails has sold out of the new quad-core slate we were quick to reach out to ASUS for an official response and have good news to report. According to our sources everything is on track and as planned.
Slashgear reported the samething
http://www.slashgear.com/asus-puts-delay-rumor-to-rest-confirms-transformer-prime-is-on-schedule-10201473/
So apparently some ASUS phone rep claimed deliveries are not delayed, what a shock. The loyal minions are will take this as some sort of official guarantee from Mr. Asus.
The level of baseless negativity here astounds me. It's almost as if people want to believe the thing will arrive 6 months late and is a piece of crap.
People are following package trucks and if no one answers and they leave it they will steal your package.
Hooray more pointless scaremongering threads! Because this is totally constructive and worth pointing out! Thank you for your invaluable contribution to the community.

Or when they delivered $1500 printer in original box, with make, model, picture, etc on the box. They didn't feel like lifting it up 1 flight of stairs and left it by the door or a private house. And this is not in suburbia. It was basically sitting on a Brooklyn street.
Actually this is how my wifes Black Friday transformer was left and it has worried me since then. Since when was signature not required he norm.

blaziner, no offense but you are definitely the worst offender when it comes to creating pointless threads...lol. I will give you credit though, some of them have been oddly, and I mean very oddly, well received. You created the 'your hype level' thread, no? That was maybe the most pointless thread I think that I have ever seen created in all of my many many years on the Internet and yes I was an adult when the Internet first became popular (barely). That said people seemed to like it and wanted to come by and say how hyped they were on a scale from 1 to 10. How can you argue with that? Carry on my pointless friend.
I should qualify this post with the fact that I have also seen some constructive posts from you as well. Maybe not threads but at least a few posts. And I don't mean this post as an insult in any way either. I know it can sound that way sometimes on these internets.
Pretty sure the world ending would void the warranty, as that is an "Act of God" and specifically excluded from coverage.

Well when I check the forum and 2 back to back threads in the General section say the exact same thing within a couple of hours of each other, it makes you wonder if people actually take the time a read other posts and threads before starting a new one. I mean literally the 2 Expansys threads were back to back saying the same thing. I could understand if they were 2 different subjects about the store, but they were not. This type of mentality is cluttering this section up. Its hard enough trying to read through every new thread that is created and trying to actually find out something that is new, and not already posted in at least 2-3 other threads. But hey if you want to call me a troll for reading 2 threads back to back about the same thing, created only a few hours of each other and commenting on how the OP could have easily posted in the other thread instead of starting a new one, then I guess I trolled this thread.

well isn't this funny.. you are talking about taking the time to read the threads and all this jazz.. then you go on to say the subjects aren't different?
really? they aren't? subjects are the same.. "please use search"
one just references a pre-order
the other (this one) states the exact date their shipment is coming in
how is that different??
1. the title is different
2. the confirmation of a date from a supplier applies to everyone as it is the massive question. why leave it burried in one thread?
please read the topics before replying next time, you are wasting our time.
thanks.
1. One references the pre-order from the store and the other one says the pre-order from the same store ships on the 23rd. True, it doesn't say the same thing exactly word for word, one just goes more into detail about the first thread.
2. If buried means that it would have been the 18th post in the thread, then sure everyone should just post a new thread once a thread has reached 15 posts since no one will read past the 15th or even 17th post.
I was just trying to point out that this info could have easily been posted in that thread. I wasn't trying to attack you or your thread, just making a point that this info could have been put in that thread, and would benefited people who went to that thread and have already posted in it before your thread was created. Then all the info would be all in one place and not in multiple places. It makes trying to find out info easier in IMO then reading multiple posts on the same subject. I hope you can see where I am coming from, and Have a great day...
I agree with both sides on this one. New thread makes it stand out more, I personally though this was the same thread but renamed at first..., This information could have been posted in the other thread and then the OP could have asked the other OP to add it to the OP if that "OP" nonsense I just put up there makes any sense. lol

correct.. point was it was info for all, important to all.. not just info for people tracking that specific preorder.
hell i haven't checked the bestbuy preorder thread of 20 pages. i would love to know when they are getting stock, and i would totally love for someone to make a thread with it in the title. as i am 32 years old with a life and don't read every post in every thread ever made.
but i understand certain people get their rocks off by running around suggesting people to use search.
i called them (spent over an hr on hold) i was told the 23rd is all they now. Im going to hold on to this order, not like it is costing me anything

Well that's gay. I'm for sure going to look else where to see if I can get one before then. This was suppose to be my Christmas gift from my fam lolol I win this battle Transformer Prime. You can't win everything!!!!
oasis9389 said:
I just called their customer service and asked when i could expect the tablet as it was an xmas gift and they said our first shipment is coming in on the 23rd.
I then asked
"i see a 19th date flying around the internet, so you won't have it on the 19th"
he replied
"Our systems show it is arriving on the 23rd"

Also note that it says "first shipment". No way that first shipment covers all their pre-orders.
just got this
Dear Customer,
Although the Tranformer Prime was supposed to be available this week,
ASUS have now pushed the availability date to mid-late January on
this tablet. We have plenty of these on order and will ship your
pre-order on a first come first serve basis as soon as stock lands
with us. No customers will have their accounts charged until orders
actually ship.
We apologize for the incovenience caused by this unforseen
manufacturer's delay, and will continue to keep customers informed of
the situation. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any
questions or need to make any changes to your order.
Regards
Order Processing
EXPANSYS, Inc.

I just wanted an official vote...
Also, please indicate the following:
1. Why you chose what you chose (did you have any issues, if so what were they?)
2. First 3-6 digits of you S/N
3. Where you bought it from
4. When you bought it
yes i am happy
UNHAPPY
Extremely unhappy and returned the product due to poor wifi, browser lockups, system lockups, and lack of response from Asus support.
Yes...n reported already a poll exactly same as this. Just because you can't use search to find doesn't mean a new thread needs to be made for it.
Oh I'm with you. But now we have new batches, news finding and we're more educated. Plus the poll was buried amongst so many other threads that nobody would care to post their thoughts anymore. Thus a new poll would be reasonable...

Well as its showing already, don't be surprised when the yes's greatly outnumber the No's.
Plus ill make sure to give everyone in "The positive transformer thread" to vote in here...lmfao. ill give you some numbers if that's what you want...lol
The more the merrier. Just want someone else to make up my mind for me. Opinion in consumer electronics and real-world use cases are valuable to me.
The word is out. You might as well start ordering your prime now if you want decision based on majority.
Yes, I'm very happy indeed, yet I understand the fellows who got lemons, not nice!
My Prime works as I expected, amazing device should I say.
Cheers
I'll wait for a C2 batch in february before I buy.

unnecessary remark. Im sure many people may appreciate a recent poll of users. Many users who were unhappy have returned it and left so they wont be voting. Many users who have stuck it out either regret it, or are having no issues.
This poll is a good idea, IMO.

Great, thanks for that! make a similar post in the "I hate my prime" thread. Oh wait you cant ... since all such threads get deleted.
Keeping it for sure, it's the best tablet available and should be a while.

You are swaying the votes, and this thread is now useless.
half the people in a thread with 300 replies just got an email from you asking to come vote here to "show the jokers"
vs an occasional "troll" user who may not be happy with his.
Not going to argue with you, im too old and have other priorities. But come on man we are all in this together. Why play games? If people are unhappy try to help, instead of insulting them and pushing them to return.
I bet if all the "unhappy" people made enough noise and Asus put out a fix ... 75% of the people in that positive thread would be jumping on board to get it.
I'll play along:
1. Why you chose what you chose (did you have any issues, if so what were they?)
I love my Prime despite the GPS issue. Keeping it for sure.
2. First 3-6 digits of you S/N
BCOKAS
3. Where you bought it from
Gameschtop
4. When you bought it
Opening day
Unhappy
Very poor wifi

how is it swaying the votes? People should vote on honest opinion. people in that thread were honest on experience. plus I never said just return. I always try to help. but when stuff like this pop up to try to make prime look bad by polls, it always backfires. then poll dies out till next person wants proof.
IM all for honest votes...if they like it, make vote reflect it. if not, make vote reflect it. its very simple. we want honest votes.
demandarin, i wonder if the people posting in this 39pg thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1474391
about taking a knife to their $600 toy to fix it ... would agree that this device is flawless?
1. Why you chose what you chose (did you have any issues, if so what were they?)
Chose "No, I'll keep returning it until I get a good one"
1st: Bleed + WiFI, 2nd: WiFi, 3rd: On order
'Cause I still haven't found what I am looking for..
2. First 3-6 digits of you S/N
